Our work has involved development and strengthening of institutional and regulatory frameworks, drafting and reviewing laws and their associated regulations to promote sector reform, sector restructuring, promoting private participation including advising on transactions, performing sector modelling and market studies, as well as tariff assessments.  We have also played a major role in supporting the establishment and capability building for newly created regulatory agencies and system operators.

Key elements of the consulting services provided include:
