Content

  • Evolution and prospects of European energy markets for the winter 2023‑2024
  • Financing of renewable energy projects
  • Importance of forecasting in audits and portfolio valuation

For the fourth time, the webinar of October will have the participation of speakers from Deloitte, who, as on previous occasions, will share their vision and experience on the status and trends of renewable energy projects financing and the importance of forecasting in audits and portfolio valuation:

Vision of investment and financing needs

  • Huge capital needs (equity and debt) until 2030 to comply with the NECP, in an environment with high volatility and uncertainty
  • Diversity among capital providers in terms of their tolerance for risk, especially by merchant
  • PPA needed as merchant risk mitigants, updated illustration of the financing conditions of projects with and without PPA
  • Sensitivity analysis of returns expected by projects shareholders in different scenarios

Risks and difficulty of preparing financial information

  • Complexity in the presentation of financial information on price hedges
  • Challenges of accounting estimates; impairment test, fair value…
  • Complexity of hedge accounting given the diversity of PPA

In addition, in the webinar the usual analysis of European energy markets will be carried out, paying special attention to prospects for the winter 2023­‑2024.
