Optimise. Advise. Energise.
Bridging technical excellence and European innovation to accelerate the energy transition.
We are a specialist technical consultancy helping energy developers, industrial operators, research institutions, and project developers design, optimise, and fund advanced energy systems. Our work combines physics-based engineering modelling, mathematical optimisation, and deep knowledge of the European innovation landscape applied to the problems that determine whether an energy project succeeds or fails.
What We Do
We operate at the intersection of advanced energy engineering and European innovation strategy supporting projects from technical design to successful implementation.
Renewable Energy Systems
We support the design, assessment, and optimisation of renewable energy systems from early feasibility through to detailed techno-economic analysis. Our work gives developers and investors a technically credible, financially grounded picture of system performance and project viability.
- Techno-economic assessment and feasibility studies
- Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and Life Cycle Costing (LCC)
- Business model development
- System modelling
Green Hydrogen & Advanced Process Engineering
Hydrogen project economics are highly sensitive to how systems are designed and operated. We build physics-based models and optimisation frameworks that capture this covering the full hydrogen value chain with the depth that investment-stage decisions require.
- Production system sizing and dispatch optimisation
- Pipeline hydraulic and thermodynamic analysis
- E-fuels process simulation and efficiency analysis
- Energy management and operating schedule algorithms
European Funding & Innovation Strategy
Securing European funding is increasingly competitive. We provide end-to-end support for organisations pursuing Horizon Europe and other competitive programmes from identifying the right calls and shaping a winning concept, to building a consortium and delivering a submission that stands out technically and strategically.
- Funding call analysis & strategic alignment
- Concept development and positioning
- Consortium building across European partners
- Full proposal writing and project management
- Technical participation as project beneficiary
Who We Support
Our clients come to us at different stages and with different needs but they share a common requirement: analysis and advice that is rigorous enough to rely on.
Universities & Research Institutes
We support advanced research initiatives with technical modelling expertise and structured guidance through the European funding landscape – from concept to consortium to submitted proposal.
Investors & Project Developers
We provide the techno-economic depth and optimisation rigour that underpins credible investment decisions on technology selection, system sizing, operational strategy, and project structure.
Industry & Energy Utilities
We help industrial operators and utilities improve the design and performance of renewable and hydrogen assets, reducing costs and supporting long-term decarbonisation commitments with evidence-based analysis.
SMEs & Start-ups
We help early-stage companies strengthen their technical proposition and access European funding programmes that can accelerate development combining engineering credibility with funding strategy in a single engagement.
Why Optivise Energy
Depth over breadth. We focus on what we are genuinely expert in. Our technical methods are grounded in peer-reviewed research and validated against commercial technology – not adapted from generic tools or standard templates.
Engineering and strategy in one team
Most technical consultancies do not understand European funding. Most funding advisors do not understand the engineering. We do both which means the technical quality of your proposal and the strategic positioning of your project are developed together, not in isolation.
Senior involvement throughout
We are a small, senior team. The people who scoped your project are the people who deliver it. That means faster turnaround, higher quality, and a direct line to the expertise you engaged.
Built for the European market
Our experience spans collaborative research and innovation projects involving universities, research institutions, and industrial partners across Europe. We understand how the ecosystem works technically, institutionally, and strategically.
