Capacity Building & Technical Support
Empowering people and institutions to lead the energy transition
We strengthen energy sector capabilities through tailored training, stakeholder engagement, and technical support. Our goal is to build lasting expertise and foster inclusive collaboration—laying the groundwork for informed decisions and sustainable reform.
Capacity Building & Training
We deliver customised programs to build regulatory, commercial and technical capabilities across the energy sector.
These are designed to meet the needs of utilities, regulators, ministries and market participants.
- Tailored workshops covering market modelling (e.g. PLEXOS), system planning, and regulatory frameworks
- Hands-on sessions and structured learning pathways
- Webinars, online delivery, and in-person instruction
Our capacity-building initiatives are a critical foundation for enabling evidence-based planning and management.
Billing and Settlements Certification
We coordinate study tours that showcase international best practices in energy transition, regulation, and system operations.
These tours provide practical insights and first-hand learning for policymakers and practitioners.
- Site visits to regulators, system operators, and clean energy projects
- Pre-tour briefings and post-tour debrief sessions
- Logistical planning and on-the-ground support
Tours foster cross-border knowledge transfer and inspire real-world application of reform ideas.
Stakeholder Engagement
We facilitate inclusive engagement processes that support consensus-building and co-design.
Engaging a diverse set of voices is key to implementing sustainable and equitable reform.
- Stakeholder mapping and targeted consultation plans
- Design and delivery of public forums and technical roundtables
- Customised communications for a range of audiences
Effective stakeholder engagement supports policy acceptance and improves implementation outcomes.

We lead and contribute to knowledge-sharing forums that foster collaboration and thought leadership in energy transition.
- Agenda development, technical presentations, and panel moderation
- Partnerships with development agencies, industry bodies and governments
- Support for national, regional, and international events
These initiatives build awareness, share innovation, and catalyse coordinated action.
