    TALK TO TOM VAN ESSEN  →CAPABILITY STATEMENT  →

    WHAT WE DO

    Independent advice throughout the deal.

    Technical due diligence

    Plant design, technology, condition and operational performance assessed against the business case.

    Red flag reviews

    Fast, focused reviews of designs and CAPEX estimates to surface deal-breakers early.

    Regulatory and compliance reviews

    Permits, grid injection agreements, environmental compliance and sustainability certification.

    Asset valuation support

    Technical input on production potential, asset health and remaining life to inform a fair value.

    Operational risk analysis

    Performance gaps, maintenance history, feedstock security and upgrade requirements.

    Post-acquisition support

    Transition planning, technical integration and performance improvement after closing.

    HOW A DUE DILIGENCE RUNS

    Five steps to a clear decision.

    01

    Scope

    Agree the questions, timeline and data needs.

    02

    Data room

    Review design, operating and contract data.

    03

    Site visit

    Inspect the plant and interview the team.

    04

    Findings

    Red flags, risks and mitigations.

    05

    Report

    Clear conclusions for the investment decision.

    WHY US

    We have been on both sides of the table.

    Owner/operator perspective

    Our partners developed, operated and exited a portfolio of plants to institutional investors.

    Independent

    Technology-neutral, with no supplier affiliations and no stake in the outcome.

    Partner-led

    Senior people on every engagement, built for transaction timelines.

    Selected work: buy-side technical due diligence on a manure digestion facility in the Netherlands (100,000+ t/yr) · red flag review of a FEL 2 design and CAPEX estimate for a greenfield RNG facility in the United States · sell-side support on the Green Create portfolio exit to institutional investors.
