Seasoned finance professionals bring strategic insight and risk mitigation strategies, safeguarding investments and ensuring project sustainability. ________________________________ For specialized recruitment needs or career opportunities in renewable energy finance, reach out today! 📨 Email: randallproservices@gmail.com 📞 Phone: (585) 577 - 7870 #HydroelectricFinance #RenewableEnergyRecruitment #FinancialExperts #GreenInvestments #SustainableFinance

Project Financing is a reverse engineering of the whole project funding process where we consider what’s going to get a tier one bank comfortable through full visibility, and confidence in the project returns. 💵 We think this is a very different approach to that taken by most other Energy Park developers. Rather than starting a negotiation with the suppliers and the counterparties, you’re starting with an agreement that is bankable. The market is more confident that energy storage is technically secure and technically capable of delivering. 💪 So we see the industry now much more comfortable with this approach. I talked to Tamarindo about this and many other topics such as our growth strategy and international expansion. Tale a look 👇 https://ow.ly/50ER50QETuc #EnergyStorage #EnergyTransition

Why growing solar developers struggle to raise capital compared to other businesses? (p.s. suggested solutions at the end). Short answer: The Risk/Reward profile for most development businesses does not meet the requirements of early stage investors such as VC funds, HNWI, family offices, etc.) Why? VC investors tpyically seek 3x-10x return, while certain development projects could achieve those returns, after adding the corporate overhead and a few delayed/cancelled projects, a development business rarely achieve those returns in the standard course of business. So what do developers need to do? Some developers are able to raise capital from friends, family and other individual investors. For other developers who don't have access to similar sources, they would be betteroff considering one or more of the following options: (1) Sell projects to generate cash, then reinvest this cash to grow. Once business is mature, raise capital from Private Equity/infrastructure funds who have the right cost of capital for a development business. (2) Use structured financing: separating each capital requirement/tranche (development, construction, equity/debt) and find the right investor for each portion. Use the development capital to cover some/of the overheads. Sell some projects to cover the salaries/overhead. (3) Find a longer term investment partner that could cover 2-3 (Corporate/Sponsor/Construction) of the capital requirements/costs above. Let us know if you have any questions.

Solar development's cash flows are irrigular and unpredictable, thus very hard to relay on for growing the business. So what could developers do to grow their business? Raising capital on the company level comes to mind, however, access to institutional capital* is hard for smaller developers who have limited/no balance sheets and early stage assets. The other solution would be to raise capital at the asset level (or portfolio of assets). This form of capital is more accessible to developers who don't have a balance sheet and/or have early stage assets. Developers could create sustainable cash flows from this model through development fees, milestone payments and also management fees. Then use those cash flows to build the balance sheet required to raise capital at the company level. *Note that we are discussing institutional capital (e.g. private equity) as there might be corporate level capital availeble from family, friends, high net worth individudals. There are some other innovative capital solutions to fund the growth and overheads before a balance sheet is created, focusing on assetco funding with parallel investment in topco. We will discuss those structures in our next post. Feel free to reach out to us on LinkedIn if you have any questions.
