Strengthening industrial strategies through ambitious and achievable national plans for climate action and sustainable development
Today’s major transitions—clean energy, digitalization, climate adaptation—are increasingly shaping competitiveness, productivity, and long-term growth. Without integrated national planning, countries risk higher costs, missed industrial opportunities, and investments that fail to scale.
We support governments to design competitive national strategies that integrate energy systems, critical minerals, and manufacturing as a single interconnected system, rather than siloed sectors. We show how mining and minerals demand can anchor grid expansion and renewable deployment, enabling competitive, low-carbon industrial growth.
Applying institutional and political-economy diagnostics, we help ensure national plans are realistic, sequenced, and aligned with the mandates and capacities of ministries, regulators, and utilities. We facilitate whole-of-government coordination so industrial policy, energy planning, land governance, and skills development reinforce one another, and support the transition from strategy to bankable project pipelines with durable governance and financing structures.
