Our development support consultancy service is the first step that a developer should take in determining the feasibility of a potential project. Before undertaking and submitting a planning application and grid connection application it is essential to understand the constraints, risks and impacts of a project.
An inherent advantage is gained through engagement with us at as early a stage in the project development process as possible. Here is an overview of the key steps within the feasibility phase:
• Market review: Analysis, high-level business model development, strategy and planning
• Site selection: Site identification and characterization of power generation and consumption
• Site lease and permitting reviews
• Grid connection: Initial DNO applications, including single line diagrams (SLDs). Initial assessment of grid connection options / offers and formalization of Grid Connection Contract Agreement variations
• Commercial assessment: Review of applicable ESS services for the operators and suppliers of the electricity network with high level service modelling
• Concept design: Project sizing and preliminary design and layout optimization
• Yield studies: Irradiation review and indicative yield modelling
Technology review & Introductions: Review of key technologies, reviews of and introductions to suppliers and contractors.
