Renewable Energy Project Finance
Full-cycle project finance advisory — from financial model development and lender package preparation through common-terms negotiation, condition-precedent management, and financial close execution.
What we deliver
Renewable energy project finance is a discipline of assembling multiple capital sources — senior debt, DFI concessional tranches, mezzanine, and equity — against long-dated project cash flows that must be modelled, stressed, and negotiated to a bankable standard.
- Financial model build — CAPEX build-up, operating cash flow, debt sculpting, DSCR profile, sensitivity and stress tests.
- Lender package — information memorandum, term sheet, technical, market, environmental, and legal due-diligence coordination.
- Debt sizing and sculpting — optimising leverage under lender covenants and cover ratios.
- Common-terms agreement — negotiation of the intercreditor, security package, hedging, and reserve accounts.
- Financial close — condition-precedent management, funds-flow, and drawdown execution.
Our markets
We lead project finance transactions in Colombia, South Africa, the United States, and across the wider LATAM region. Each jurisdiction has its own lender universe, permitting profile, offtake framework, and hedging market — expertise we bring to every mandate.
Typical engagement
Mandates run 9 to 18 months from kickoff to financial close, depending on project readiness. QSL is compensated on a mix of monthly retainer and success fee at drawdown.
