Our approach

We advise on political and strategic issues and support dena’s project work, with our focus spanning a wide variety of sectors. To this end, we prepare current and relevant energy and climate policy topics in analysis and dialogue concepts. We are responsible for specific projects in the areas of carbon management, the circular economy, financing, acceptance and governance.
