ABOUT KISHAN GUPTA

I am a consulting & research professional with 6+ years of experience, specializing in the Energy, Chemicals, Power & Utilities, and Industrial sectors with a niche in Sustainability & Energy Transition. My work sits at the intersection of corporate strategy, commercial due diligence, procurement strategy, and sustainability, helping private equity, corporates, and national oil companies make informed investment and strategic decisions.Over the years, I have worked on high-impact engagements such as commercial due diligence for wind and chemicals acquisitions, portfolio strategy for a Southeast Asia based conglomerate, carbon compliance modelling for Middle Eastern industries, and market assessments in renewables and water treatment. I have also delivered procurement and sourcing projects — including vendor localization, tail-spend optimization, and developed an automated spend cube model that cut analysis time from weeks to days and directly drove client savings.Alongside client work, I have contributed to firm-building initiatives: designing ESG dashboards in Power BI, creating low-carbon pathways databases, co-authoring thought leadership on decarbonization technologies and mentoring & guiding junior colleagues.I enjoy solving problems at the confluence of markets, finance, and sustainability, and thrive in roles where I can combine structured analysis with stakeholder engagement to deliver outcomes that matter.Alongside sector and strategy expertise, I am actively exploring applications of AI in consulting workflows, leveraging automation and prompt engineering to boost efficiency and deliver sharper insights.
