Engineer reviewing project documentation

Bankability & feasibility

Feasibility studies that stand up to lender review

We build the technical and financial evidence a bank, funder or board needs before committing to a solar PV or storage investment — from verified consumption through to modelled returns.

Verified energy baseline

We work from 4 to 12 months of actual electricity bills rather than assumptions, and establish the applicable tariff and load pattern.

  • Bill capture and validation
  • Tariff structure confirmation
  • Load factor and offset targets

Yield modelling (P50 / P90)

Production is modelled per array using irradiation data referenced to PVGIS, with orientation, tilt, shading and losses applied.

  • Per-array orientation and tilt
  • Shading and system losses
  • P50 and conservative P90 cases

Financial model

A 20-year cash flow with escalation, degradation and operating cost assumptions, reported on the metrics reviewers ask for.

  • IRR, NPV and payback
  • DSCR by year
  • Sensitivity to tariff and yield

Tax treatment

South African renewable energy capital allowances are modelled explicitly so the after-tax picture is visible.

  • Section 12B / 12BA allowances
  • After-tax cash flow
  • Effect on payback and IRR

Compliance evidence

A checklist of the approvals, standards and documentation typically required for grid-tied commercial systems.

  • SSEG and utility requirements
  • Standards and CoC evidence
  • Structural and safety sign-off

Assumptions register

Every input is documented and sourced so a reviewer can test the model instead of guessing at it.

  • Input source and date
  • Ranges and confidence notes
  • Version-controlled outputs

Feasibility and bankability studies are advisory engineering and financial modelling work. Modelled savings and returns depend on the assumptions listed in each report and are not a guarantee of future performance or of funding approval.

Commission a feasibility study

Send us 4 to 12 months of electricity bills and your site details, and we will scope a feasibility study or produce an indicative model first.
