Savitr Consulting is a boutique advisory firm working across climate and carbon markets, biofuels and the energy transition, government-enabled markets, ESG and climate finance. We help clients in Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Africa and the wider Asia-Pacific move from first assessment to financial close.
One firm, six connected practices. Every engagement links strategy to execution: market intelligence, regulatory compliance, project economics and the capital to fund it.
Carbon credit origination and monetisation from agri-residue, waste-to-value and nature-based projects: biochar, compressed biogas (CBG), briquettes and pellets, recycling, reforestation and biodiversity. We work across the major registries and standards — Verra (VCS & CCB), Gold Standard, Puro.earth, Global Carbon Council and Article 6 pathways — with MRV design, GHG accounting and buyer pipelines.
Feedstock origination, offtake structuring and refinery feasibility for SAF, HVO, biodiesel and FAME. Practitioner-level experience across waste-based feedstocks, ISCC and RED III qualification, and ICAO CORSIA compliance.
Market entry and stakeholder strategy where government is the gatekeeper: space-adjacent and dual-use sectors, energy policy, investment facilitation and public-private engagement across India, Singapore, the Gulf and Africa.
The full financing spectrum for climate and transition projects: green and sustainability-linked bonds, blended finance and DFI capital, carbon-linked structures, ESG strategy and disclosure, project economics and bankability. Plus commodity risk management with futures, options, MTM and VaR frameworks, and trade finance structuring.
Commercial execution for companies entering Asia-Pacific, delivered with our group partner AsiaGTM: market assessment, buyer mapping, pipeline build and operational setup as one connected programme.
End-to-end transaction support: supplier and counterparty due diligence, offtake and supply agreements, M&A screening, and negotiation support with energy companies, developers and institutional counterparties.
Representative work across the residue-to-value, clean fuels and nature-based space.
Full advisory mandate for an industrial cashew-shell valorisation plant: CNSL, DOC and biochar routes modelled, carbon-credit monetisation (Puro.earth-referenced pricing), capital stack design and fundraising strategy with indicative IRRs of 15–21% on the integrated route.
Built an end-to-end tallow supply chain from concept to board approval for 100K MT annual supply, with a mapped feedstock pipeline exceeding 1M MT across Southeast Asia, Australia and the Middle East for a Bain Capital-backed fuels producer.
Structuring carbon programmes around CBG/biogas plants, briquette and pellet production, and recycling projects: baseline design, GHG screening, registry selection and credit commercialisation.
Nature-based solutions development: reforestation and afforestation project screening, biodiversity co-benefit design under CCB and Gold Standard frameworks, and structuring credits for premium corporate buyers.
Feasibility and project economics for integrated pretreatment, biodiesel, SAF and HVO refinery concepts: technology selection, RED II/III regulatory positioning and emissions benchmarking to inform investment and site decisions.
USD 120M combined trading contribution across energy and agri commodities; co-structured a USD 5M supplier-backed trade finance facility; blockchain-based FX hedging workflows cutting process time by 40%.
With AsiaGTM: ranked market assessments, 400+ target buyers identified for a B2B SaaS entrant into Southeast Asia, and board-grade entry blueprints built to stand up to investor scrutiny.

Most advisers stop at the report. We stay through the deal: linking technical reality, commercial strategy and financing into one bankable narrative, and standing beside you when it goes in front of lenders and investors.
Residue and resource audits, market mapping, route screening and an initial assumptions pack, typically within the first 90 days.
Mass balance, P&L modelling, carbon-accounting design and management workshops to lock the business case.
Fundraising packs, investor decks, partner maps and pilot plans built to stand up to board and lender scrutiny.
Debt and equity processes, implementation support and execution governance through to operations.
The best first step is a working conversation, not a pitch. Choose the channel that suits you — you reach a principal, not a pipeline.
45 minutes, no charge, directly with the principal. Come with a specific question about your project or market; leave with a considered view and a clear next step.
Book a sessionThe fastest way to reach us. A short message is enough — we reply personally.
Open WhatsAppFor formal approaches, partnership conversations, or anything that suits a considered reply better than a calendar link.
