Smart Strategy and Execution

—About us
Our goal is to capture the greatest value and minimize risk to produce high-quality, sustainable results.

energyNW Advisors provide strategy and execution services to utilities, cities, communities, and businesses in the Northwest in support of their grid modernization, smart grid, smart cities, green energy, or sustainability goals.
We have the domain experience and depth-of-knowledge to help utilities assess, define, and execute their future vision, while not losing focus on the reality of the here and now.
We work closely with our clients to thoroughly understand their goals and desired outcomes and then ensure that their strategic initiatives are actionable, well-designed, tightly-aligned, and delivered with the organization's objectives in mind.
