Energy planning
We establish and review national and regional energy planning and incorporate wind energy into the planning schemes. We investigate the possibilities of combining wind energy with other energy sources with regard to carbon emissions, economy, supply security and the electrical infrastructure.
Trade and transportation of energy
In the national grid, we make a full economic assessment of the transportation options and costs of wind energy. We review and analyse the trade possibilities and value benefits of wind energy with regard to sale at the national and neighbouring power spot markets compared to the unit production costs. This leads to a trade price for the electricity to be produced. We review the opportunities in bilateral sale to industries that wish to have a 'green image'. Finally, we analyse the development of the electricity consumption in general to view wind energy in a larger national and regional perspective.
Project finances
We perform standard financial cash-flow analysis based on different ownerships and lending conditions for the wind project. A complete overview of the economy in a wind project is established by means of probabilistic models. This is of high importance as wind projects are a complex nexus of many technical and economic disciplines. Finally, we provide a financial risk analysis in which we incorporate all elements of the wind project and consultancy concerning project financing.
