Turn energy strategy into a portfolio you can actually deliver.

The landscape

Energy organisations are renewing critical assets and expanding network capacity to meet growing demand, new connections and changing energy needs, while maintaining reliability and affordability.

Electrification, renewable generation and storage are driving major investment, while regulation, technology, costs and delivery constraints continue to shift. Regulators also expect a clear information and audit trail to support reporting and to justify costs and pricing, and we help clients meet these requirements with confidence.

Sentient connects network renewal, growth and transition investment with funding, delivery capacity, risk and dependencies, giving leaders one view of how decisions affect the wider energy system. As conditions change, plans can be adjusted without losing sight of reliability, affordability or critical commitments.

  • Renewal, growth and transition investment compete for the same capital and delivery capacityNetwork renewal, growth, electrification, generation, storage, resilience and customer initiatives all compete for investment and scarce delivery resources.
  • Dependencies across programmes and suppliers can put the wider energy system at riskIndividual projects can look on track while dependencies elsewhere in the portfolio or beyond the organisation put the wider outcome at risk.
  • The plan keeps changing, even when the commitments do notDemand, policy, technology, costs and delivery assumptions change over the life of an investment programme.
Sentient Solution
  • Balance renewal, growth and transition investment against real constraintsBring asset renewal, network growth and transition investment together with funding, delivery capacity and risk so you can compare options and test trade-offs.
  • See how dependencies affect the wider energy portfolioConnect programmes, milestones, resources, suppliers and risks so dependencies are visible across the portfolio, not just within individual projects.
  • Re-plan as demand, technology and costs change without losing sight of commitmentsKeep decisions, assumptions, changes and delivery information connected so plans can evolve as conditions change while critical commitments remain clear.
Regional electricity network customer perspective
“We had a large programme of network renewal and upgrade work, with outages, contractors and dependencies that all had to line up. Sentient gave us a clear view of what we had committed to, what we could realistically deliver and where the risks were building.”
