When financing energy and infrastructure developments, project financiers, banks, and investment funds face a critical challenge: ensuring that ambitious engineering designs translate into bankable, reliable, and commercially viable assets.
Emcon Consulting Group provides independent Technical Due Diligence (TDD) and Lender’s Technical Advisor (LTA) services tailored specifically to mitigate these risks. By bridging the gap between complex engineering realities and commercial decision-making, we help lenders and investment committees evaluate whether a project is technically feasible, appropriately designed, realistically priced, and built to perform.
Comprehensive Infrastructure Coverage
Emcon’s TDD services leverage our full multidisciplinary expertise across a wide range of sectors:
- Energy & Power: Renewable energy, battery storage, conventional generation plants, substations, and transmission/distribution infrastructure.
- Water & Sanitation: Bulk water supply, treatment, pumping, storage, wastewater collection, and discharge infrastructure.
- Civil Infrastructure: Roads, stormwater, earthworks, and township services.
What We Deliver
Our advisory services support financiers throughout the complete project lifecycle:
- Bankability & Feasibility: Reviewing technology selection, design basis, site conditions, and regulatory compliance.
- Cost & Programme Assessment: Independent reviews of capital expenditure, contingencies, procurement strategies, and long-lead risks.
- Contractual & Interface Alignment: Scrutinising EPC, O&M, and equipment supply contracts to catch scope gaps and technical interface risks.
- Financial Model Verification: Assessing yield assumptions, system losses, operating expenditure, and lifecycle maintenance inputs.
- Construction & Operational Monitoring: Performing on-site progress inspections, drawdown certifications, performance monitoring, and lifecycle audits.
