Our Firm

An energy and environment management consultancy built around scarce expertise, donor-grade discipline, and integrated solutions.

The Practice

Corporate, technical and commercial advisory for the power and energy sector.

E2 Consulting offers a broad range of advisory services across policy, market reforms, regulatory affairs, transaction advisory, and the commercial, financial, economic and technical analysis that energy decisions demand — for clients in power and oil & gas across Pakistan and the wider region.

We help the management of energy companies establish and turn around businesses through knowledge-based decisions: selecting technologies, building optimal operating models, identifying and developing investment opportunities, structuring project finance, and assessing and mitigating risk.

Our Approach

Interactive consulting, integrated solutions.

Our slogan is also our method. We involve clients at every stage to reach solutions that are mutually understood and genuinely actionable — and we insist on integration over isolated analysis.

Interactive

We work with clients throughout a mandate rather than delivering a report over the wall. That keeps assumptions honest, surfaces constraints early, and produces recommendations the organisation can actually implement.

Integrated

We analyse the interrelationships between the technical, commercial, financial, economic, regulatory and legal dimensions of a problem — to arrive at decisions that are technically robust, economically optimal, and financially and environmentally sustainable.

Positioning

"A senior, donor-grade energy advisor who designed a competitive electricity market, priced a utility for privatization, and testified at The Hague — bringing global-standard power-sector reform, privatization, tariff, oil & gas and transaction expertise to governments, development banks, lenders and energy investors worldwide."

The Moat

Why clients choose E2.

01

A market designer

Part of the international team that designed Pakistan's competitive wholesale market (CTBCM) — transferable to any sector being unbundled.

02

A privatization modeller

Built the IFC/FESCO sell-side privatization model and run buy-side energy M&A diligence — sellers and buyers both.

03

A testifying expert

Quantified the economic impact in the Indus Waters dispute and attended the hearings at the International Court of Arbitration, The Hague.

04

A cross-border specialist

Commercial advisor on CASA-1000 and the India–Pakistan interconnection — regional power-trade structuring few advisors offer.

05

Donor-grade discipline

Fluent in ADB and World Bank guidelines on economic and financial analysis, financial-management assessment and procurement — lowering onboarding friction.

06

Full-spectrum, one bench

Privatization, policy, regulation, tariffs, market design, feasibility, generation/T&D engineering, oil & gas/LNG and climate — capabilities that usually need a team.
