Global M&A trends in energy, utilities and resources: 2025 outlook
Transformative shifts in geopolitics, energy security priorities and market dynamics will drive M&A in the energy, utilities and resources sectors in 2025.

Transformational strategies so you can grow through the energy transition
The world is shifting towards a more secure, resilient and efficient energy future. Traditional fossil fuels are increasingly complemented by a mix of diverse sources—solar, wind, hydrogen, nuclear and advanced fuels. Electric vehicles, smart grids and carbon capture technologies are changing how we power industries, cities and homes.
But progress brings complexity, such as ageing infrastructure and unpredictable costs. And the need for new investment models demands bold action.
Collaboration is key. Governments, businesses and communities working together to shape a new energy system: resilient, affordable and built for the future.
We help you navigate market changes, manage risk and capitalise on innovation. Move beyond legacy systems. Embrace renewables, digital innovation and circular economies. And fuel a more secure and adaptable energy future.
The race to net zero is accelerating. Climate change, resource scarcity and the global energy transition are driving major shifts across the industry. From decarbonisation to digitalisation, the coming years will redefine business models, investment priorities and regulatory landscapes.
The boundaries between industries are blurring. Sectors are reorganising into larger, intersecting domains—grouped by the value they provide to customers and economies. Rapid progress in AI, data and automation are reshaping supply chains. These shifts bring both risk and opportunity—as well as demanding new business models, partnerships and ways of thinking.
