Power & utilities
ADI’s expertise and consulting empowers power and utilities clients to capitalize on demand growth, overcome aging infrastructure and grid resiliency challenges, navigate complex regulatory landscapes, and accelerate the transition to a sustainable future.
Trusted by power & utility companies around the world
The power and utilities sector is undergoing significant disruption across all energy sources. Electrification is boosting demand, particularly from lucrative commercial segments like data centers and EV charging, and efficiency gains although material fail to temper overall growth.
Solar, wind, geothermal, and other renewables are driving down costs and increasing adoption, pressuring traditional coal- and gas-fired generation, which now faces rising regulatory and ESG demands. This shift necessitates massive investments in transmission and distribution infrastructure.
New technologies like energy storage and the entry of oil and gas companies into electricity markets are further accelerating this transformation, leading to immense capital investments and a reshaped power and utilities landscape.
How ADI can help
ADI Analytics brings deep expertise, rich experience, and numerous models, analytics, and databases on electric power and utilities covering plants, capital (capex) and operating costs (opex), capacity, demand, generation options and patterns, policies and regulations, and technologies to help clients with a wide range of needs.
Our teams have helped power and utilities companies conduct insightful market research, develop business strategies, estimate costs and economics, address regulatory issues, gather competitive intelligence, and assess technologies.
“ADI is a great partner for validating strategy. Had we proceeded without ADI’s involvement, our strategy would have been incorrect.”
