The Energy, Infrastructure & Sustainability Group work closely with organisations in the oil, natural gas, electricity and alternative energy sectors. Increasing performance pressure from customers, regulatory bodies and shareholders, combined with the enormous capital investments required by new and emerging technologies, make real estate optimisation a necessity for energy companies.
The aim of this sector group is to help clients navigate the complex challenges presented by real estate. We can either streamline entire property portfolios for maximum flexibility and efficiency, or satisfy a specific property requirement as part of a one-off transaction. In all cases we seek to align business objectives with real estate solutions.
