Recommended Service Pathways
Whether you are acquiring an operating portfolio, underwriting a greenfield pipeline or defending an existing position, our independent engineers translate technical reality into the numbers your investment committee can trust.
Technical Due Diligence
Commission this before you close an acquisition or commit equity, to independently validate technology, design, costs and the assumptions underpinning your investment case.
ExploreBankability Assessment
Engage us to confirm a project meets lender and IC criteria, de-risking the path to financial close and protecting your equity returns.
ExploreProject Risk Assessment
Use this to map and rank technical, construction and operational risks across an asset, so you can price exposure and negotiate from evidence.
ExploreContract and Procurement Technical Review
Bring us in before signing EPC or supply agreements to scrutinise scope, warranties and liabilities, ensuring contracts genuinely protect your capital.
ExploreEnergy Yield Assessment
Rely on our independent yield estimates to test the revenue line in your financial model and challenge over-optimistic developer projections.
ExploreGrid Connection Studies
Order these to verify connection feasibility, curtailment risk and export capacity, since grid constraints can quietly erode the returns you underwrote.
ExploreEnvironmental and Social Due Diligence
Commission this to confirm ESG, permitting and community risks are managed, satisfying lender safeguards and protecting your fund's reputation and exposure.
ExploreConstruction Monitoring and Owner's Site Supervision
Appoint us as your eyes on site through construction to safeguard drawdowns, hold the contractor to spec and keep your asset on schedule.
ExplorePerformance Assessment and PR Review
Use this on operating assets to benchmark actual output against expectation, verifying that acquired or held projects are delivering modelled returns.
ExploreRoot Cause Analysis
Call on us when an asset underperforms or fails, to independently diagnose the cause and protect the value of your investment.
