It is the pro-active, diligent and professional strategy to deal with revenues and costs in renewable merchant (unsubsidised) facilities.

In unsubsidised facilities, with no feed-in tariff scheme in place, it is important to reduce volatility and costs in order to capture value that is normally lost in regular merchant operations, as it such value goes straight onto the bottomline.

Therefore, implementing a strategy focused on closing price hedges aimed at avoiding downward scenarios in the market, or closing periods at price levels that may improve our financial projections and base case are highly interesting options.

Similarly, optimizing market access contracts, export and sale of guarantees of origin, participating in ancillary services market or closing PPAs with offtakers are all aimed at improving the profitability of renewable facilities.

If utilities and oil&gas companies have their own energy management teams, why don’t financial investors do the same?
Optimize Energy is perfect for investment funds, IPPs and private investors who own late-stage or operational renewable projects.
