In today’s rapidly evolving renewable energy sector, investors, developers, and lenders require bankable, de-risked projects that meet the latest regulatory, technological, and financial benchmarks. A rigorous, data-driven Technical Due Diligence (TDD) is essential to assess project viability, mitigate risks, and ensure long-term performance.
At Nenuphar Advisors, we conduct comprehensive Technical Due Diligence (TDD) for both Greenfield and Brownfield renewable energy projects, covering permits, asset condition, contractual obligations, and financial alignment to enhance bankability and investment security.
Key Components of Nenuphar Advisors’ Technical Due Diligence
🔹 Regulatory & Permitting Screening
- Verification of land rights, environmental approvals, and construction licenses to ensure full legal compliance.
- Grid interconnection feasibility studies, including TSO/DSO requirements and curtailment risk analysis.
- Auction & PPA review to confirm contractual obligations, off-taker reliability, and revenue predictability.
- ESG & sustainability compliance aligning with EU Taxonomy, IFC Performance Standards, and CSRD regulations.
🔹 Technical & Asset Condition Assessment
- Site suitability analysis using advanced GIS, meteorological data, and climate resilience modeling.
- Performance degradation studies for solar panels, wind turbines, and battery storage systems.
- Grid stability & impact assessments including inertia, reactive power management, and system flexibility.
- Supply chain risk mitigation, assessing technology availability, warranty coverage, and O&M strategies.
🔹 Hybrid, Storage & Grid Integration Feasibility
- Assessment of co-located hybrid solutions (Solar + Wind + BESS + Green Hydrogen).
- BESS (Battery Energy Storage System) technical feasibility including use case optimization (arbitrage, peak shaving, grid balancing).
- Grid modernization readiness – evaluating smart grid, blockchain-enabled P2P energy trading, and VPP (Virtual Power Plant) integration.
- Hydrogen project feasibility – assessing electrolyzer compatibility, renewable energy input variability, and storage logistics.
🔹 Contractual & Financial Due Diligence Alignment
- Evaluation of EPC & O&M contracts to ensure cost competitiveness and performance guarantees.
- Risk assessment for long-term PPAs, Corporate PPAs, and merchant market exposure.
- Financial sensitivity analysis, integrating IRR, LCOE, and carbon credit monetization strategies.
- Stress testing of financial models against inflation, interest rate fluctuations, and supply chain disruptions.
