Energy and Industry

Grow beyond the commodity contract.

We help energy suppliers build household offers around solar, batteries and smart charging. We work with industrial companies to grow service revenue and improve the way they sell through distributors.

2026 growth agenda

Where to focus.

Tariffs and household lifetime value

As dynamic and time-of-use contracts spread, model imports, exports and peak demand for households that add solar, batteries, heat pumps or EVs. Test who gains from each tariff and how it changes margin, retention and hedging risk.

Home energy services

Bundle equipment, smart charging and optimisation into one offer with savings the customer can see. Compare installation, subscription and partner-led models, then track quote conversion, activation and actual savings.

Household demand management and batteries

Identify which households can shift when they draw power without compromising comfort. Model what a home battery can save through solar self-consumption and smart scheduling, accounting for tariffs, battery wear and the customer’s reserve needs.

Industrial services and routes to market

Find where maintenance, parts and upgrades add value over the life of a product. Define which customers to serve directly and where distributors can improve reach and service.

Cases

Our work in energy and industry

Growth funding

Funding customer growth from existing spend

A leading energy supplier wanted to accelerate customer acquisition without raising its cost base.

Read the case: Funding customer growth from existing spend

Work. We ran demand management on external spend across the organisation (buy less, buy differently) and reinvested the savings in priority growth initiatives.

Result. Customer acquisition doubled and profit grew by 20%.

Energy / Household flexibility

Make smart charging and home batteries work for households

A residential supplier wants an offer that helps households use more of their own solar power and shift demand to cheaper hours, without asking customers to manage it every day.

How we approach it: Make smart charging and home batteries work for households

Approach. Model household imports, exports and peaks with and without smart EV charging and a home battery. Compare a dynamic tariff with an automated bundle, taking battery wear, charging deadlines and customer overrides into account.

Test. Pilot with different household profiles. Compare realised bill savings and peak demand against a baseline, alongside activation, opt-outs and supplier margin.

Industry / Aftermarket growth

Grow service revenue from equipment already in use

An equipment manufacturer wants to sell more maintenance, parts and upgrades to customers who already rely on its machines.

How we approach it: Grow service revenue from equipment already in use

Approach. Map equipment by age, use and service history. Identify where downtime matters most, then design the right mix of preventive maintenance, spare parts and uptime agreements.

Test. Pilot the offers with new buyers and at renewal. Track the share of equipment sales that include a service contract, renewals and margin after field-service costs.

Industry / Pricing and distribution

Grow through distributors without giving away margin

An industrial products supplier wants to expand distributor coverage while tightening discounts and rebates that no longer reflect the service distributors provide.

How we approach it: Grow through distributors without giving away margin

Approach. Calculate what the supplier retains after discounts, rebates and the cost of serving each account. Define which customers to serve directly and tie distributor incentives to new accounts, stock availability or technical support.

Test. Pilot the new terms with a small distributor group. Track end-customer sales, coverage and realised margin before expanding them.
