Services
Due diligence
Technical, permitting and environmental checks to understand what a renewable project is really worth, before investing.
Overview
Before investing, knowing what you are buying
A renewable project can have its permits and still have problems with the connection, the land or the environmental requirements. Due diligence brings them to light while there is still time to decide.
We work with funds and companies, including foreign ones, assessing projects in Italy. We can step in on this phase alone or follow the project in later phases too.
What we check
The areas that decide whether a project holds up
Permits
Validity, effectiveness and expiry of the permits, and their consistency with the project to be built.
Connection
Connection quote and solution, required works, schedule and validity.
Land and easements
Availability of the land and rights to bring the cable route to the connection point.
Environment and constraints
Environmental assessments, requirements and landscape constraints affecting the area.
Technical aspects
Layout, capacity and output, with consistency across design, application and connection.
Regulatory framework
National and regional rules, suitable areas and transitional rules that apply to the procedure.
When it is needed
The moments when it makes the difference
01
Before acquiring
When considering the purchase of a project, permitted or still in development, and you need to understand what is missing and how much it matters.
02
Before financing
When investors need a documented technical and permitting picture on which to base their decision.
03
When the project changes
A project lasts for years and regulations change in the meantime. It may need revising, including to take it from solar PV to agrivoltaics.
How we work
From documents to a clear answer
01
Framing
We start from what the client has to decide and which checks are really needed.
02
Document review
We examine permits, connection, land and studies, comparing them with one another.
03
Site checks
We check on site what the paperwork alone can't clarify.
04
Report
We report issues and possible solutions in a form that is useful for deciding.

From solar PV to agrivoltaics: what changes in an ongoing project
Many projects start as solar PV and become agrivoltaic. The conversion affects layout, structures, farm plan and permitting: the requirements to keep in mind.
