What we see in electricity and utilities

Six risks that recur across every engagement

Each one appears in the register with an owner, a rating and a treatment plan.

Supply and plant failure

Generation and network failures that interrupt supply.

Ageing assets

Maintenance backlogs on plant, lines and substations.

Revenue and non-payment

Unpaid accounts, theft and losses that erode revenue.

Regulation and tariffs

Licence conditions, tariff decisions and market reform.

Safety and environment

Contractor safety, emissions limits and compliance.

Cyber and control systems

Attacks on the systems that run plant and grid.

Inherent rating, before controls

Regulatory context

The frameworks your register has to answer to

We map each obligation to a risk, a control and an owner, so the register and the compliance universe are one document rather than two.

  • Electricity Regulation ActLicensing, tariffs and market rules, overseen by NERSA.
  • Grid CodeTechnical rules for connecting to and operating on the grid.
  • OHS ActSafety for staff and contractors on plant and networks.
  • NEMA and Air Quality ActEnvironmental authorisations and emission limits.
  • PFMA and MFMAFinancial governance for state and municipal utilities.
  • King VRisk governance for boards.
How we work with electricity and utilities clients

Built around keeping supply running

Timed around operations

Sessions are planned around outages, peak periods and board meetings.

Technical and corporate risk in one register

Plant and network risk sits alongside finance and compliance, rated on the same scale, so the board sees one picture.

Evidence on hand

Controls and actions are recorded in a secure workspace your team keeps updating, so a regulator or audit request is answered from live records.
