From its academic roots, Aurora Energy Research is a thriving, rapidly growing company, currently serving over 1,000 of the world’s most influential energy sector participants, including utilities, investors, and governments.
While we constantly strive to reach new markets and diversify our product portfolio, we are already active across the globe in Asia-Pacific, Latin America, Europe, South Africa and North America, working with leading organisations to provide comprehensive market intelligence, bespoke analytic and advisory services, and cutting-edge software.
We are a diverse team of experts with vast energy, financial, and consulting backgrounds, covering power, hydrogen, carbon, and fossil commodities. With this, we provide data-driven intelligence to fuel strategic decisions in the global energy transformation.
At Aurora, you will apply the skills you have developed through your studies to solving some of our clients’ most interesting and intricate problems. Combining bespoke training and on-the-job learning, we will help you elevate your abilities to the next level, preparing you to build trusting relationships with clients, develop new business opportunities, nurture teams and communicate complex ideas with crystal clarity.
Projects include valuations of energy assets, modelling bespoke scenarios and asset configurations and conducting analysis to forecast asset economics for investors, banks, developers and utilities. Besides project valuation work, the Advisory team also works with governments and regulators on designing and evaluating energy policy.
While most projects last for around four weeks, some longer projects, such as multi-client studies or longer pieces of policy work, can take a number of months. Graduate Analysts usually work alongside other Analysts, and project teams are made up of one or two Analysts, a Project Manager and a Senior Associate providing oversight. Teams re-form for each new project, so you will get the chance to work with a variety of Aurora experts in the wider Advisory team.
Quarterly market forecast reports are the main output of the Research team. Each quarter you’ll be updating our latest view of the evolution of the power system to 2060 by modelling energy markets based on the latest assumptions on power demand, commodity prices, market activity and policy. This involves a combination of desk research and modelling in collaboration with other teams.
The Research team also prepares regular mini conferences which involve presenting in-depth and timely analysis on a specific aspect of the market. Research teams consist of around 5 Analysts, and you’ll work closely with this team throughout your exposure in this team. The reports are read by subscribers from across the industry, including developers, utilities, asset optimisers, system operators, policymakers, regulators, and others.
