Key Risks & Value Drivers
-
Value Realized: By advancing the asset to RTB, the project eliminates primary regulatory, land-use, and permitting risks, creating an immediate, financeable infrastructure asset.
-
Near-Term Focus: Mitigating supply-chain lead times, firming up EPC cost certainty, and closing financing to protect the target COD and projected rate of return.
