"Energy and resources is set to hit double-digit growth, with the fastest-growing sector in 2025 growing at 9.4% to hit $15.5 billion. Energy and resources practices are projected to grow at 11% to $17.3 billion in 2026."
"The tension that consulting partners are most focused on is the widening mismatch between the pace of the AI boom and the slower timelines required to build the power systems needed to support it."
"The most forward-looking consultants are already forecasting the possibility of a greener future marked by widespread automation, despite the current acceleration of short-term investments in natural gas."
The energy sector is experiencing a significant shift due to AI-driven power demand, particularly in the US, which is becoming a global hub for computational growth. Companies are now modeling sharp demand spikes linked to the rapid expansion of data centers. This change is leading to a surge in energy-related consulting services, with projections indicating double-digit growth in the energy and resources sector. The mismatch between the fast-paced AI boom and the slower development of power systems complicates the energy transition, prompting short-term investments in natural gas while maintaining a vision for a greener future.
