Renewable energy

Renewable energy driven by decarbonisation policy, decentralisation and digitalisation is transforming energy production globally. The continuous rapid revolution in technologies and costs, shifting regulatory requirements and power price volatility are all front of mind for stakeholders in this sector. We offer an integrated team of specialists to provide you with the guidance you need to secure financing and seize new growth opportunities in this market. 

Our approach

Bringing sector intelligence coupled with specialist technical skills helps us support our clients operating in this sector meet the challenges of this complex environment, to address key concerns such as:

• Finance new developments and projects
• Finding growth opportunities and expanding around the world
• Increase asset resilience and cyber security
• Improve efficiency and operating performance

At Mazars, we have a strategic focus in reducing risk when working with clients in this sector. For example, we have extensive experience in financial modelling across all the major renewable sectors of onshore and offshore wind, solar, biomass and waste.

A robust, reliable model allows project planning to proceed with confidence. Our worldwide renewables team can then leverage our expertise in tax, accounting, and operations to solve critical challenges.

With asset prices rising, yields are under pressure as soon as a transaction is complete. We work with our clients to support them in the operations phase to immediately integrate new projects, and provide ongoing support for operational efficiency throughout their portfolios through outsourcing, tax compliance and statutory audit support.

With increasing regulatory pressure and demand from customers and supply chains to provide sustainability information, we also help clients to build frameworks and governance processes to verify and assure the narrative reporting on their sustainability activities.
