I'm Prashant Sarup — a regulatory and economic adviser with over a decade of experience shaping energy and infrastructure policy. I build the models, frameworks, and pricing strategies that power markets.
I'm a regulatory and economic adviser who has spent over a decade at the intersection of energy policy, infrastructure pricing, and market reform across the Pacific and Australia.
From designing industry specific tariff structures, I bring hands-on experience in building cost-of-service models, tariff methodologies, and financial frameworks that work in practice — not just in theory.
Now through Econova Consulting, I partner with governments, regulators, utilities, and development organisations to deliver evidence-based solutions that strengthen markets and support the energy transition.

Perspectives on regulatory reform, energy economics, and market design across the Pacific and beyond.
The Pacific doesn’t lack renewable energy it lacks cheap capital. In this article, I’ve attempted to highlight why credit ratings matter for Pacific Island countries and their clean-energy future.
Examining the regulatory and financial frameworks needed to achieve ambitious renewable energy targets in small island developing states.
Comparing regulatory approaches for Pacific utilities and what lessons can be drawn from Australian and international experience.
