Marcus Ferdinand

I am Veyt’s chief analyst, overseeing our research across renewable power, gas, and carbon markets. I also lead on our thought leadership and policy content. My focus is on making sure our clients understand the forces shaping and impacting low-carbon markets and how these can be effectively managed and addressed. My objective at Veyt is to equip decision-makers—in companies and political institutions—with insight into how their actions impact demand and supply in renewable power, gas, and carbon markets. I help our customers understand the market forces at play and how to make the best possible decisions based on our analytical insights.

I am a carbon and power market expert with over a decade of experience, and it has been a journey of constant learning. As an engineer by training, I enjoy taking a mixed practical and academic problem-solving approach to my work. My career started on the trading floor at E.ON (now Uniper), where I teamed up with carbon and energy traders to understand and predict market dynamics. Subsequently, I have held leadership positions at Thomson Reuters (now London Stock Exchange Group) and Independent Chemical & Energy Market Intelligence (ICIS), building and shaping predictive analytical products focused on energy and carbon markets around the globe.

This experience has enabled me to do what I am good at—breaking down complex problems into modelling frameworks and explaining the implications of changing assumptions to our customers.

I have spent my career ensuring that carbon, power, and gas market players have access to quality data and actionable insights. What drives me and my team is our ability to produce meaningful analysis that eventually results in reduced emissions. Having worked across these overlapping markets from multiple perspectives, I am confident in spotting emerging trends, supporting decision-makers in making future-proof choices and identifying opportunities across the low-carbon market ecosystem.
