REA Training Series – From Net Zero Strategy to Investable Projects
Course Programme
Session 1:
Market context and project feasibility
How the energy transition is reshaping infrastructure, procurement and investment decisions, including the
move away from subsidy-supported project economics, the implications of repowering and life-extension
decisions, and the growing importance of market access and alternative revenue streams.
Participants will reflect on how these market changes are affecting their own projects, portfolios, investment
criteria or procurement strategies, and discuss the practical feasibility questions that arise in response.
Session 2:
Where value sits and what affects pricing
Revenue models, routes to market, flexibility value, collocation, private-wire opportunities, and the principal
drivers of commodity and non-commodity pricing that affect project economics in practice.
Participants will be invited to consider the value drivers and pricing pressures most relevant to their own work
and discuss how these factors influence project structuring, commercial viability and investment decision
making.
Session 3:
What creates risk and how projects are financed
Planning, grid, land rights, real estate constraints and interface issues, counterparties, regulatory change,
delivery structures, and the role of financing models, including debt, leasing and vendor financing, in shaping
project
viability and bankability. Interactive exercise and discussion.
Participants will discuss where commercial, delivery or financing risks tend to arise in practice and explore
how those risks are being approached in current projects, transactions or procurement
exercises.
Session 4:
Bankability, deliverability and future scan
What makes a project investable, financeable and capable of delivery in practice, including investor and lender
scrutiny, project structuring considerations, and a forward-looking discussion of the trends likely to shape
institutional appetite and project feasibility over the coming years.
Participants will have the opportunity to apply the session themes to current opportunities or concerns in
their organisations, with space to discuss future-looking questions, practical challenges and how
changing market conditions may affect investment, funding or procurement decisions.
