Ciga Energy Advisory & RCI Holding

Ciga Energy Advisory is part of the RCI Holding group - a platform with over 25 years of infrastructure expertise, active across the energy and public sectors, and managing €25B in CAPEX across 35 countries.

Within the group, we serve as the dedicated business and management advisory practice - the strategic layer that translates operational capability into client value. In many engagements, we act as the integrating force across group companies, connecting specialized expertise to deliver end-to-end solutions that no single entity could offer alone. Clients especially appreciate the ability to run complex projects with a single point of contact/responsibility.

While Ciga Energy Advisory was formally established in 2023 (spun off from Ciga Energy as a separate legal entity), the Advisory team was actively supporting clients ever since 2014.

The same people, spirit, methodology and client relationships are here - built over years of work, at the intersection of energy markets, regulation, and commercial operations.
