Power & Utilities

Helping power and utilities transform and adapt to new challenges

At KPMG we help power and utilities companies respond and adapt to challenge. The ongoing energy transition, new technologies, regulatory pressures and changing consumer expectations has created a difficult environment. We expect permanent changes to work, travel, and patterns of energy demand, a need for smarter energy systems and new business models.

We work with water, power generation, transmission and distribution businesses. We help them to reduce operating costs, comply with regulation, implement new technology, and develop customer strategies. Our experience can help you shape your business model for the new energy world.
