Project Description

Project development phase “Financing, contracting & subsidies”

A viable business case is the ticket – but financing, contracting and subsidies are crucial to the success of the project. Only those who set up the capital structure and partners at an early stage can build, supply and grow quickly later on. EXAVY structures the financing architecture, arranges capital and brings strategic suppliers and operators on board. For projects that work – and remain viable. What we work out specifically for the project:

  • Specific shareholder structure, capital structure and financing strategy – Coordination of equity, debt and subsidies with project phases and milestones

  • Concrete supplier strategy and preliminary contracts – Establishment of a network of strategic partners (energy, components, construction, operation)

  • Deepening the project-specific funding review and preliminary inquiries – Early assessment and dialog with BEW, SAB, KfW, state offices

  • Project-specific contracting and operator model – modeling of SPV, community energy, heat contracting, cooperatives

  • Final capital acquisition and financing modules – Preparation of documents for banks, funds, investors and co-financiers
