Renewable Energy Asset & Investment Valuation

Master the Critical Strategies and Techniques Necessary to Assess & Create Renewable Project Value in Today’s Uncertain Market

Valuation of renewable energy projects is a core skill for participants in the industry; the ability to quantify the long-term risks and rewards of a project remains essential for developers, investors and portfolio owners. Developments such as intensifying competition in project acquisition, the shortening tenor for utility and corporate power purchase agreements (PPAs), and the changing dynamics of power markets in the face of increasing renewable capacity is making the process more complex than ever. The success of investment decisions and project financings in the current market relies on accurately evaluating market and project risk over a long horizon—an increasingly challenging task that can create tension between sponsors, regulators, and debt and equity investors.

The Renewable Energy Asset & Investment Valuation Master Class, thoroughly updated and revised for its first in-person presentation, will conduct a deep dive into valuation approaches in today’s market, and how to use them to meet IRS, investor and regulatory requirements. An in-depth review of the broad sweeping Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 will be provided, as well as post-enactment governmental guidance issued to date. This extraordinary class provides the analytic tools and technical understanding of renewable energy projects necessary to evaluate their economic and financial viability and to effectively structure such projects to meet requirements for project finance and market support. It will step through the rigorous application of valuation approaches, helping develop a depth of understanding and appreciation of how to incorporate market volatility in valuations that rely on varying forward energy price projections provided by competing market sources and often spotty market transaction data.

This Master Class will be taught by senior renewable energy project valuation professionals from Marshall & Stevens, a recognized leader in valuation services, including over $50 billion of renewable energy projects valued over the past 10 years. The class will also feature presentations by highly-respected renewable energy project attorneys, investors and top developers to provide their perspectives of asset valuation in the current market.
