Frequently asked questions
Can you carry out due diligence before we acquire a project?
Yes. We can support buyers, sellers, funds and investors in the technical review of BESS and solar projects and of the related connection works.
What do you analyse during a technical due diligence?
The analysis can cover design, technology, permitting, connection, network works, land availability, programme, CAPEX, technical risks, buildability and the completeness of the data room. The purpose of a TDD is to identify technical risks and propose mitigation measures ahead of an investment, a financing or a transfer of the project.
Can you prepare a red flag report before a binding offer?
Yes. We can carry out an initial analysis focused on the issues that could compromise permitting, connection, timescales, costs or the feasibility of the project.
Can you review only the connection and the network works?
Yes. Due diligence can be limited to a specific discipline, such as the STMG/STMD, the substation, the cable route, the availability of the connection land, or the costs and programme of the works.
Do you also work alongside a lender technical advisor?
Yes. We can work with lead advisors and financing institutions, providing specialist technical checks, documentary analysis and local support on Italian projects.
Can you review several projects at the same time?
Yes. For portfolios made up of several projects we can prepare uniform checklists, risk classification criteria and comparable reports, highlighting where deeper analysis is needed.
Do you have a project in development or a connection to verify?
Tell us where the permitting process stands and which voltage level you are connecting to.
