Metals and minerals are indispensable elements of our daily lives, with a crucial role in crafting the essential components of modern infrastructure and in shaping the landscape of low-carbon energy endeavors. The World Bank finds that extraction of energy transition minerals will need to increase five-fold by 2050 to meet demand for clean energy technologies (World Bank, 2017), in addition to the fast-growing demands outside of the transition itself. Even with the current climate of policies which are largely designed to fast-track critical minerals to the market, it takes roughly 10 to 15 years to bring new mines online. At ERM, we have been helping miners overcome legacy issues and work through challenges to help design, bring to production, optimize and ultimately help create world-class operations. ERM's team of experts can address the strategic, operational, technical and tactical challenges encountered by major, mid-tier, and junior mining companies worldwide, including in jurisdictions where others do not have experience in. Our long-honed expertise includes, among others: Technical and expert services dedicated to exploration, feasibility and mine development planning; Helping companies to bring new mines online though understanding the unique challenges of the process and designing solutions that work; Realigning overall ESG strategies to maximize valuation and reputation; Enhancing H&S strategies and practical incident prevention through developing and managing operational risks and controls; Advancing strategic and practical decarbonization throughout the value chain, from mining equipment to processing and transportation; Formulating water stewardship strategies and advanced technical solutions.

Oil and gas companies - whether upstream, mid-stream, or downstream - are facing a range of major challenges. The complexity of global oil markets, changing geopolitical factors, resulting sanctions & regulations, the impact of unconventional resources, and the desire to be seen as a solution in the low-carbon energy transition are just a few of the broad concerns impacting the sector. More focused challenges center around how capital project development and delivery, the operational performance of assets, and the incessant rise of new technology are changing the way companies work at all levels. Other issues include entering new markets, capital project support, and how to operate in a safe, compliant, and sustainable way. ERM partners with the top oil and gas companies in the world to address their challenges across the entire value chain. This includes: Responding to increasing regulatory pressure, customer preferences and shareholder expectations on transparency in compliance and governance, including reporting; Addressing climate and energy transition risks and opportunities at the corporate strategy and asset operation level; Recognizing and responding to the need for 'above ground' non-technical risk management to avoid delays or cost overruns to major capital projects; Delivering performance in the face of human challenges including recruiting, retirements, and a large contractor base.

ERM's renewable energy consultants will give you the speed and skill to win. ERM's unmatched renewable energy services will level up your ability to move quickly and deftly, whether your company is generating, consuming, or investing in renewable energy—or all three. When deploying renewable energy, speed matters. Energy users are counting on the renewables industry to rapidly scale the world's supply of clean and affordable electricity. But speed isn't enough. New renewable energy projects must navigate complex interconnection processes, compete for land, flex to emerging regulations, secure broad support from discerning communities, adapt to changing weather conditions, meet rising standards for sustainability and strike the right balance between sale/buy price and contractual risks. Developers and financial backers must manage financial risk in dynamic market conditions and leverage incentives across disparate and shifting global markets. On a field this challenging, speed and skill are the keys to competitive advantage. ERM serves the businesses at the heart of the clean energy transition. Our clients include power producers, utilities, investors, banks, diversified energy companies, and large energy users. We have technical expertise in every major renewable energy technology, including solar, onshore wind, offshore wind, hydroelectric, geothermal, hydrogen, battery energy storage as well as pumped hydro energy storage.

The drivers for decarbonization continue to intensify. Climate-related market and technology disruptors and policy changes present material financial risk and opportunity to organizations. Investors and lenders demanding net zero alignment as well as climate risk and opportunity disclosures. Consumer trends highlight a widespread willingness to forgo a preferred brand in favor of a more eco-friendly alternative, as well as to pay more for sustainable goods. And financial regulator compliance obligations that were initially focused towards financial institutions are now expanding to listed corporates and large privately owned businesses. Accelerating decarbonization begins in the boardroom, developing a strategy which is practical and deliverable by the organization, without compromising commercial objectives. ERM helps companies create long-term value by reimagining business models and portfolios, and evaluating the impact of regulated and voluntary carbon markets on business strategy.

As regulatory requirements and social expectations continually evolve, many organizations struggle to thoroughly and cost-effectively meet their ongoing obligations. Compliance with environmental, health and safety (EHS) and social issues is an ongoing commitment that needs to be embedded into the strategic management of business risk and visible leadership commitment and behaviors, as well as in day-to-day management systems of the operation. Managing regulatory obligations, such as permitting and ongoing compliance, is integral to enhancing operational risk management and protecting corporate reputation. Many leading companies also view compliance as an indicator of broader operational performance factors, such as resource efficiency and business resilience. We work with every level in the organization to define, design, and deploy programs that achieve and sustain compliance, effectively manage EHS issues, and also control operational costs and reduce risks. We improve the effectiveness of management systems and minimize disruption by working closely with clients to reduce unnecessary complexity and ease the transition on the front lines.

Keeping people and assets safe is a fundamental requirement in any business, but often the substantial resources that companies invest in safety still fail to achieve the desired goal. Increasingly, we are seeing that a number of approaches to safety may actually impede progress in improving safety performance, as they are often difficult to embrace, replicate, and sustain. ERM encourages clients to move beyond traditional compliance and corrective programs so that they can maximize the return on their investments in safety - to safeguard lives, protect assets and strengthen reputation. ERM helps organizations to: Strengthen their existing safety culture and demonstrably improve their safety performance Reduce risks by developing skills to better observe unsafe behaviors, identify hazards and empowering people to take action Enhance the effectiveness of leaders, employees and contractors to promote safer outcomes Reinvigorate existing processes and programs - maximizing the value of safety investments ERM has a broad and diverse global consulting team that includes health, safety and risk management consultants, stakeholder management consultants, data analysts, human factors specialists, engineers, and coaches.
