    Blake Clough Consulting is a specialist energy consultancy with a focus on the electricity networks. We cover a range of areas relating to feasibility studies, power systems studies, offshore wind, project engineering, innovation, regulation and technical strategy, with a strong emphasis on our customer relationships.

    We are passionate about the decarbonisation of the energy system and the transition to "Net Zero" and aim to support our clients to accelerate this change as effectively as possible, whether that be local authorities, large network companies, private developers etc.

    Our clients range from electricity network operators, regulators and public sector organisations through to private developers, both onshore and offshore, looking to develop projects connecting into the electricity networks.

    Our Directors have strong relationships with a wide range of partners and associates, developed over many years of working in the industry, which ensures that we can offer the highest quality and most appropriate capabilities, tailored to meet the requirements of each project and client. Our work is underpinned by solid analysis and modelling, including techno-economic assessment, cost benefit analysis, power systems analysis and network modelling.

    Blake Clough has now been trading since September 2021. Since this time, we have built up a strong pipeline of work with major clients and our staff are very busy delivering multiple projects. We have a young, enthusiastic team of consultants, which we will continue to grow strongly over the coming months and years.
