Public affairs and lobbying are about earning a place at the table by having something to say.

In almost every market, energy is one of the most politically exposed parts of the economy. Even in times of relative calm, energy issues are never far from the surface of political consciousness. Now more than ever, those with an interest in energy have to understand and engage with the twists and turns of political debate.

The energy sector is in a period of existential change. We help clients to navigate these trends, drawing on deep energy expertise and years of experience working within, advising, and dealing with governments. Our aim is to help clients turn political knowledge into a competitive advantage.

We support clients by developing their government relations programmes. We develop and deliver strategies to communicate key policy messages and shape the wider political agenda.

We can support your public affairs team with a range of services:

  • Political research: Our government relations analysts can help you to map out the key political challenges and risks facing your organisation. We provide the benchmarking research that allows you to design the most effective engagement strategy.
  • Political stakeholder polling: Understanding the views of legislators, journalists and other key influencers can be crucial to gauging political risk and working out next steps. Working with our research partners, we manage quantitative and qualitative polling projects that access audiences from Members of Parliament through to voters and journalists.
  • Political and policy monitoring: You can only engage with political process effectively if you know what's going on. Our political analysts design monitoring programmes and reporting that's tailored to clients, so you receive reports when you need them, covering the most relevant information and in the format you require. Our experts offer both high-level strategic interpretation and in-depth analysis of policy developments.
  • Stakeholder mapping: The relative importance of political decision makers is not static. It changes over time. Our team keeps a close eye on the policy processes that matter to you, and ensure that you're focused on the right stakeholders at the right time.
  • Policy development: Our team consists of energy experts who've worked within think tanks, NGOs, political parties and government. That means we can help you to identify the challenges and the policy options that could move the market forward. We augment our own expertise with an exceptional network of policy thinkers, so if we don't have the expertise in-house, we do know how to access it.
  • Political campaigns: From promoting your brand to pushing forward a policy agenda, we'll help you to connect with policy influencers, thought leaders and decision makers to achieve results.
