How ‘Energy-as-a-Service’ models unlock commercial decarbonisation

Baringa's Energy Innovators

In this episode, Baringa's Ellen Fraser hosts a discussion with Tim Meanock, CEO and co-founder of the climate tech company Tallarna, and Daniel Bolton, expert in Home and Transport Decarbonisation at Baringa.

The conversation explores Energy-as-a-Service (EaaS) as an innovative solution for commercial decarbonisation. The guests explain the mechanics of EaaS models, the financial incentives they provide, and how to develop robust business cases that meet the needs of all stakeholders. They also address risk management for EaaS projects, considering various customer profiles, and offer strategic advice for businesses seeking to decarbonise their operations.

About our host:

Ellen Fraser, Partner and Expert in Energy and Resources, Baringa

Chances are, you’ve already met Ellen. When it comes to the energy sector, she’s a trusted expert – a familiar face commenting on the BBC, she’s quoted everywhere from the Financial Times to The Guardian. And at Baringa, one of her big clients is energy regulator Ofgem. Ellen’s talent for decoding a complex industry is her opportunity to not only explain it to others, but to be inside the engine room of change. She’s sat in boardrooms with the CEOs of every major UK energy supplier. And her work with Ofgem cuts to the heart of policy and regulation. Ellen believes even the most difficult situations – like a national energy price crisis – can focus minds on the world’s move towards clean, renewable power. Ellen takes complicated questions and strips them down. She looks for simple, effective solutions. The “so what?” buried in a pile of detail. With this approach, she steers her clients around pitfalls.
