RE & Energy Storage Advisory & Engineering
BESS & RE design, advisory and modelling for RTC and FDRE, technical & financial due diligence — backed by PMC and independent engineer services.
Utility-scale renewables and storage live or die on the quality of early engineering decisions. Our advisory desk combines resource analytics, detailed engineering and grid expertise so every recommendation is bankable — not just theoretical.
We support developers, industrial off-takers and investors across feasibility studies, BESS & RE detailed design, dispatch modelling, technology selection, owner's engineering and technical & financial due diligence — across solar, wind, small hydro and storage. Our modelling desk advises on Round-The-Clock (RTC) and Firm & Dispatchable RE (FDRE) supply — optimising solar-wind-hydro-storage portfolios against demand profiles, transmission constraints and bid requirements.
Beyond design, we stay accountable through delivery: as Project Management Consultant (PMC) we manage schedule, cost, quality and contractors on the owner's behalf, and as Independent / Lender's Engineer we provide the impartial technical oversight that lenders and investors rely on from construction through operations.
How we deliver
Resource & load analytics
15-minute interval load studies, solar/wind/small-hydro resource assessment and ToD tariff mapping to quantify the real opportunity.
Concept, sizing & RTC/FDRE modelling
BESS power/duration optimisation, hybrid RTC/FDRE portfolio modelling and yield studies with degradation and RTE stress-tests.
Detailed engineering
SLDs, layouts, protection philosophy, grid-connection studies and specifications ready for procurement.
PMC & independent oversight
Project management consultancy through construction, plus independent/lender's engineer reviews and technical & financial due diligence to bankability standards.
