  • At Strategic Decisions Group, we're closely monitoring the transformative funding opportunities driving the US energy transition. The policies highlighted here underscore the growing momentum for clean energy investments and the critical role the private sector will play in shaping a sustainable future. Thank you Sang-Won Kim for your insightful post!

    While there are ongoing debates about the best approach to decarbonizing the US economy, the Biden administration has undeniably introduced pivotal policies to drive private sector investment. Here are five key facts about the funding available for energy transition initiatives: 1) Three major acts and laws, including the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL), CHIPS and Science Act, and Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), incorporate funding for investment in energy transition. 2) Over USD 324 billion is available from these programs, excluding an additional USD 220 billion in tax credits under Sections 45 and 48. 3) Over 50 percent of the funding is allocated to agencies beyond the Department of Energy, such as the EPA, Department of Agriculture, and the National Science Foundation. 4) The primary focus of the funding is on clean energy technology development, with additional emphasis on environmental conservation and justice initiatives. 5) The Department of Energy's Office of Clean Energy Demonstration (OCED) is responsible for managing USD 25 billion, directing funds towards initiatives like building regional clean hydrogen hubs. These policies are making the US a prime destination for investments aimed at developing new economies. #EnergyTransition #CleanEnergyInvestment #USEnergyTransitionPolicies

    What is the right bid to place at the upcoming offshore wind auction? Discover in the attached example, how the principles of Decision Quality (DQ) can empower project developers to make better bidding decisions. Why is this crucial? The offshore wind auction is where all strategic planning culminates. It's more than just bidding optimization — it's a long-term strategy condensed into a single bid, where major challenges must be considered: - An increasingly competitive landscape and decreasing subsidies - A tight offshore supply chain - An emergence of new business models beyond, CfD and PPA - Integration of non-price tender criteria with less transparency How can DQ help? The principles of Decision Quality provide a framework for making informed, confident decisions under uncertainty. As the next offshore wind auction approaches, harness these principles to navigate the complexities and position your bid for success. #OffshoreWind #DecisionQuality #Sustainability #EnergyTransition #Auction

  • „Wer heute Projekte entwickelt, kann morgen als Erster den globalen Markt bedienen“ Wir freuen uns, dass H2News – Hydrogen information platform unserem CEO Mark Seidler die Möglichkeit gegeben hat, über die Zukunft des Wasserstoffs und seine Bedeutung für die Energiewende zu sprechen. Mark Seidler betont, dass Wasserstoffprojekte große wirtschaftliche Chancen bieten, insbesondere wenn CO2-Preise weiter steigen und das Bewusstsein für ökologische und soziale Verantwortung in der Wirtschaft wächst. Wichtiger denn je ist die Flexibilität in der Planung, denn makroökonomische Unsicherheiten erfordern vorausschauende, strategische Entscheidungen. Unternehmen, die jetzt mutige Entscheidungen treffen und diese konsequent umsetzen, werden langfristig erfolgreich sein. Das vollständige Interview mit Infos zu unseren Projekten im Bereich Wasserstoff gibt’s nach dem link auf https://lnkd.in/eWrBxX3b #Wasserstoff #Strategie #Nachhaltigkeit #SDG #Innovation #Energiewende #Dekarbonisierung #Zukunftstechnologie Magnus Schwarz

  • We share the excitement about the revolutionary potential of GLP-1 therapies in chronic disease management. As strategic consultants, we support pharma and biotech companies in leveraging innovation and advanced analytics to realign their portfolios and meet patient needs optimally.

    #GLP1 therapies, initially targeting diabetes, are now demonstrating promise in reducing body weight and further improving cardio-renal-metabolic health. Current therapies achieve 10-20% weight reduction, but this is just the beginning. Future treatments will aim to reduce 50% or more of excess weight, potentially revolutionizing chronic disease management. Innovation triggers such ripple effects, and #pharma and #biotech companies must reassess their asset and portfolio strategies. It's vital not only to explore new modalities but also to assess existing portfolios to ensure they offer relevant treatment options. Making strategic decisions backed by advanced analytics is key to navigating the intricate balance between financial and non-financial business objectives. By embracing these innovations and utilizing robust analytics, organizations can elevate their portfolio value and spearhead healthcare advancement by focusing on addressing patients' most critical needs. #Pharma #Biotech #Healthcare #GLP1 #PortfolioManagement Strategic Decisions Group (SDG)
