Energy transition projects are no longer limited by the availability of individual technologies. The greater challenge is connecting those technologies into systems that can operate reliably, compete economically and scale across industries. Across Asia-Pacific, organizations are balancing decarbonization objectives with energy security, creating demand for solutions that combine engineering expertise with practical project execution. JGC Holdings Corporation [TSE: 1963] brings decades of experience delivering complex energy infrastructure to this evolving landscape. The company applies its process engineering and project delivery capabilities across hydrogen, ammonia, carbon capture and renewable energy. Its work spans the decarbonization of existing energy assets through carbon capture and storage (CCS), blue hydrogen and fuel ammonia, while also advancing emerging areas such as offshore wind and small modular reactors (SMRs). Rather than focusing on individual technologies, JGC develops interconnected energy systems that link production, conversion, storage, transportation and end use. An Integrated Approach to Energy Transition JGC supports clients throughout the energy transition journey by combining engineering, procurement and construction capabilities with feasibility studies, technology development, commissioning, operations and maintenance. This approach allows the company to address challenges beyond construction by evaluating how new technologies can function within existing infrastructure, regulatory environments and commercial frameworks. Hydrogen and ammonia represent key areas of focus. While hydrogen offers a pathway toward lower-carbon energy, its widespread adoption depends on overcoming challenges related to storage and transportation. JGC views ammonia as a practical energy carrier because it can leverage existing handling and logistics infrastructure while enabling the movement of hydrogen-derived energy across regions. Through its AMUSE™ initiatives, the company develops solutions across ammonia production, utilization and supporting infrastructure.

Australia’s evolving energy market is creating exposures that do not always fit established risk-transfer structures. Weather-driven volatility, new generation technologies and changing financing requirements are creating risks that must be understood at the market and asset level before they can be transferred. Risk Solutions International and CQ Energy owned by EnergyOne Ltd (ASX: EOL), have operated as a joint venture at the intersection of energy markets and alternative risk transfer since 2008. Together, RSI and CQ translate energy-market exposures into workable risk-transfer structures and connect clients with counterparties suited to the transaction. Their clients include power generators, retailers, commodity traders and independent power producers across Australia’s National Electricity Market. “We work closely with clients to structure transactions around what they actually require to manage risk, including the premium levels and limits they are working toward,” says Patrick Bourke, director at RSI..
