Renewables

ERM’s renewable energy consultants will give you the speed and skill to win.

ERM’s unmatched renewable energy services will level up your ability to move quickly and deftly, whether your company is generating, consuming, or investing in renewable energy—or all three.

When deploying renewable energy, speed matters. Energy users are counting on the renewables industry to rapidly scale the world’s supply of clean and affordable electricity.

But speed isn’t enough. New renewable energy projects must navigate complex interconnection processes, compete for land, flex to emerging regulations, secure broad support from discerning communities, adapt to changing weather conditions, meet rising standards for sustainability and strike the right balance between sale/buy price and contractual risks. Developers and financial backers must manage financial risk in dynamic market conditions and leverage incentives across disparate and shifting global markets.

On a field this challenging, speed and skill are the keys to competitive advantage.
