Practice Areas

Matt specialises in energy reform, regulation and transactions, and is presently focussed full-time on the energy sector's once-in-a-century transformation. For 30 years he's helped governments deliver energy and other reforms, and helped private clients navigate those reforms and operate within the resulting regulated markets.

Matt has a particular interest in remote hybrid power, and in helping electricity grids accommodate deep penetration of intermittent renewable energy.

On infrastructure access, Matt has personally authored several statutory and contractual access regimes covering electricity, gas, rail, port and other infrastructure, and has advised clients under several others. He knows access from every perspective -- asset owner, access seeker, financier, regulator and policy maker.

Matt is a self-proclaimed energy nerd, who speaks fluently the disparate 'languages' of engineering, regulation, policy and economics. He can help translate these languages for you and your stakeholders, and his cross-disciplinary blend of knowledge and experience can help you develop and deliver your own decarbonisation strategy.
