Energy and Water businesses work with a layer of complexity beyond normal commercial pressures. Multi-faceted stakeholder relationships, regulatory and public scrutiny and ongoing industry structural and technological change all intersect. Effective strategic thinking is therefore critical to long-term financial and operational success in these dynamic sectors.
Marchment Hill Consulting (MHC) is dedicated to helping businesses in these industries to make and implement the right strategic decisions. Our clients benefit from our content-rich analysis, deep industry insights and robust methodologies as they set the future path for their organisations.
MHC is also at the forefront of innovation in the energy and water sectors. In energy we specialise in the emerging technologies and business models and market processes supporting distributed energy resources such as solar PV systems, battery storage, demand response technology, and electric vehicles.

This includes MHC’s Digital Metering and Intelligent Water Network Business Case Model which has been developed in conjunction with several water authorities across Australia.
