Growth equity investments drive corporate M&A activity amid attractive valuations of development platforms 💡 Development platforms are increasingly leveraging equity capital, evolving their strategies to mature their pipelines. This move is particularly noticeable in the renewable energy sector - think solar, wind, and storage projects, along with cutting-edge technologies like green ammonia. 🤝 Key Highlights: -- Strategic partnerships are forming between these platforms and PE firms, including the venture arms of utilities and oil & gas majors. -- This synergy enables equity investors to acquire valuable stakes and developers to sidestep costly debt markets for growth funding. 🔄 Meanwhile, leveraged utilities are adopting a unique approach: divesting up to 50% stakes in select business units. This strategy aims to balance the need for ambitious capex deployment and capacity buildout without further debt accumulation. 🌱 Utilities maintain their financial health without compromising on credit ratings, while investors get a slice of EBITDA-positive assets and promising GW-scale pipelines. 📈 What are your thoughts? #GrowthEquity #RenewableEnergy #DevelopmentPlatforms #StrategicPartnerships #PrivateEquity #VentureCapital #Utilities #InvestmentTrends #SustainableInvesting #EnergyTransition #RenewableEnergy

M&A is expected to remain healthy in #power and #utilities as developers of #renewables seek to monetise assets on the back of higher financing rates and construction costs, while publicly-listed utilities recycle non-core assets to fund development pipelines.

How to secure project finance for BESS projects? 1️⃣ Tripling renewable energy capacity by 2030, 2️⃣ doubling the pace of energy efficiency improvements and 3️⃣ transitioning away from fossil fuels are some of the key energy goals recognized by nearly 200 countries at the COP28. As this transition from legacy fuels happens and as renewables penetration increases, a suite of energy storage solutions will be required to maintain reliability and security of supply. According to a report published on April 2024 by the International Energy Agency, the required energy storage needs to increase sixfold by 2030 to meet those objectives. Huge ambitions from large institutions that need access to huge sums of capital. Therefore, leveraging on the different funding mechanisms is of utmost importance and project finance is considered as a key one. How to make then project finance work for BESS projects? To answer this question, it’s important to understand first the challenges to secure project finance. Some of them are: - Revenue streams: quite complicated and less revenue certainty compared to generating assets. Different markets including capacity market, wholesale market, balancing mechanism and ancillary services. - Track record of successful projects - Technological risk: rapid evolution of technologies and landscape of the active actors - Technical risk: principle of batteries involving different types of hazards, degradation profiles, operating standards - Supplier selection and supply chain reliability Some ways towards securing a project finance: - Early engagement with the Lender’s Technical Advisor and anticipating the technical diligence since bankers are not familiar with BESS concepts and then rely on experts when making decisions. The early engagement would be a proactive approach to address any potential concern in advance. - Supplier evaluation: consideration of Tier 1 supplier with comprehensive projects database, assessing the experience of supplier in various BESS projects installed in different geographies with similar site conditions (challenge for harsh, hot and dusty environments). - Financial stability and track record of supplier - Supplier’s market presence and supply chain reliability - Supplier’s quality assurance and compliance with international standards and local regulations - Project lifecycle and performance guarantees: providing robust performance guarantees, maintenance plans, and clear projections for the project's lifecycle - Revenue stack: Demonstrating a clear and sustainable revenue model - Contracts and Interface management: ensuring an efficient and comprehensive interface management in the split contracting scheme, expected to be the predominant model going forward. #Energytransition #EnergyStorage #BESS #Batteries #BESSdesign #BESSbusiness #BESSoperation #IEA #ProjectFinance #WorldBank

ENGIE Global Energy Management & Sales has been awarded by Risk.net the Deal of the Year for our acquisition of Broad Reach's battery storage assets. This $1 billion deal brings us closer to reaching 10GW of battery storage capacity by 2030, with 350MW of operational assets and 1.7GW under development. As mentioned in my shared interview with Narsimha Misra, balance sheet knowledge and market expertise are expected to play a key role in battery storage in the coming years. This acquisition provides ENGIE access to Broad Reach's vast experience, having developed 21GW of storage projects in key US markets like California, Texas, and Utah. This deal supports our US ambitions and contributes to our global net-zero emissions target. This deal is as well a formidable opportunity for ENGIE to welcome a very talented team, eager to energize our ambition to accelerate the energy transition. Thank you to everyone involved in making this project a success beyond our expectations!

Too often, renewable asset portfolios are left to operate at the lowest levels of acceptable output, assigned to time-poor asset managers with limited specific sector knowledge.   If we are to deliver the energy transition in time to meet our global 2050 net-zero targets, ambitious investors in the sector must consistently look for ways of exceeding expected returns on their investment. Trundling along at the lowest acceptable levels of output simply isn't good enough. However, as global demand for renewable energy build-out increases, the relative supply of available skilled and experienced talent is set to drop rapidly. That is a major reason why I founded Neptune Infrastructure Associates - to make available the expertise that has traditionally been locked up in the energy majors, to financial investors in the sector. Having spent most of my career working on originating, negotiating, managing and divesting joint ventures in the infrastructure sectors, I know first-hand the importance of trust and collaboration between partners. When one side holds all the knowledge, data and day-to-day control cards - it rarely ends well for the other side. Developing a deep understanding of your asset is vital in protecting your interests... however, most investors simply don't have the time to take a more active role in their investments. That's where we come in. Neptune Infrastructure Associates are an extension to our client's asset management team. We partner with investors to protect their interests in energy assets, leveraging our extensive hands-on experience, deep sector knowledge and collaborative approach to maximise return on investment.
