Low Carbon

Low-carbon companies must balance fast growth with disciplined investment decisions. As industry-specific advisors operating between IT and industrial operations, we help leadership establish clarity through digital health checks, as-is mapping and peer benchmarking. The focus is on identifying the most impactful levers across cost per tonne CO₂, uptime and regulatory exposure, and translating these into prioritised investment cases and roadmaps that hold up to investor and partner scrutiny.

CCUS and hydrogen value chains involve many actors collaborating across capture, transport, storage and end use. Without a solid foundation, silos emerge and projects stall. We design and implement scalable data platforms, IT/OT integrations and enterprise architectures that bridge industrial systems and modern IT, creating a single source of truth. This enables real-time insight, structured data sharing between stakeholders, and the data quality needed for reporting and credit verification.

Low-carbon production is energy-intensive, and without the right analytics inefficiencies multiply across steam, power, uptime and solvent use. Realising value from industrial data requires understanding the underlying processes, not just algorithms. We identify loss points, establish operational KPIs and dashboards, and develop focused AI pilots on customer data. Our experience across capture plants and industrial operations shows that tailored applications deliver verifiable reductions in cost per tonne CO₂ captured.

As companies approach commercial operation, whether selling credits, negotiating offtake, or reporting under CBAM and CSRD, buyers, investors and regulators demand auditable evidence. We help build the measurement, reporting and verification (MRV) capability needed: mapping reporting data flows, defining critical control points, and designing governance for audit-ready reporting. The result is higher credibility, faster certification under recognised methodologies, and reduced risk of misreporting.

Capture plants, hydrogen facilities and CO₂ infrastructure increasingly fall under NIS2, and recent advisories show that OT and ICS environments are active targets. We assess the interface between IT systems and operational technology (SCADA, ICS, DCS), evaluate vulnerabilities and NIS2 compliance, and review access management and segmentation. The output is a prioritised risk list with concrete actions and a roadmap for secure IT/OT integration, protecting production, regulatory standing and trust.

Low-carbon projects are complex, multi-stakeholder endeavours where delays and cost overruns are common, especially in the transition from FID to construction and operations. We provide hands-on project and program management across the full lifecycle, drawing on experience from CCUS pilots, plant scale-up and large-scale industrial transformations. From PMO setup and portfolio governance to interim leadership, we help clients move faster and more predictably, without losing control of scope, cost or quality.
