Wind project bankability

Wind bankability solutions include feasibility and bankability studies for wind power plants to evaluate and analyse the potential of a proposed wind farm to give assurance to decision makers. By assessing the strengths and weaknesses of a proposed investment, opportunities and threats as presented by the environment, and the resources required for the project, the prospects for success will be made clearer.

Globally, more and more emphasis is placed on reducing carbon emissions and harnessing clean energy. Typically, the potential for wind energy is high with the challenge of huge capital cost and long pay-back period. Evaluating the bankability of a wind power project helps to determine the economical, technical and operational requirements for long-term success of your financial investments.

Early‑stage investment decisions to meet stakeholder expectations

TÜV SÜD assures that decisions made in the early stages of a project meet various requirements and stakeholder expectations. Our assessment of wind potential based on meteorological mast data, site evaluation as well as financial and economic analysis will give full assurance to decision makers. We support bankability services with additional solutions such as feasibility studies, environmental due diligence, technical due diligence, construction site supervision services, contract review and grid integration services.

TÜV SÜD provides integrated reports based on technical, financial and economic assessment. Our holistic approach can have a beneficial effect on the value of your project. Our wind farm bankability solutions include:

• Technical assessment
  TÜV SÜD provides verification of a location’s suitability, identification of critical site-specific aspects like wind condition, site accessibility, power evacuation and simulation of energy yield based on site location and technology. Our technical experts assist you with measures to optimise layout of wind farms to achieve higher yields.
• Financial assessment
  We calculate the annual power production of a wind farm based on the project design and local climatic conditions.
• Economic assessment
  Our experts provide an assessment of the economic feasibility of the project. This includes a country-specific analysis of the financial context and regulations.
