The energy sector is facing another fundamental revolution, not least due to the energy transition. Decarbonisation, digitalisation and decentralisation are changing the traditional energy industry and consequently the way energy is generated. An inescapable climate protection policy continues to drive the global trend towards renewable energies and innovative technologies. The generation of electricity from decentralised renewable energy plants, such as wind, solar or photovoltaic, in combination with the use of energy storage solutions, will become significantly more important. In the long term, electricity production with renewable energies will replace the centralised fossil fuel generation of electricity. In sales, the demands on market participants are shifting – away from pure energy supply products towards smart behind-the-meter customer solutions such as smart homes or the Internet of Things.
This means that established business models in the energy industry will change fundamentally and sustainably. This development is also being intensified by competition with new players from outside the sector. Energy companies are rising to this challenge and adjusting their corporate strategy accordingly in order to successfully shape this transformation. Partnerships and strategic alliances, even with companies previously outside the sector, will gain in importance. Focusing on profitable businesses will be another key driver for transactions in the energy market – whether it's an acquisition, merger or carve-out, our team will assist you throughout the process. We want to actively shape this transformation jointly with you so that you can take on the role of pioneer and successfully seize the opportunities.
