BESS Technical Due Diligence & Advisory
KRD Renewables provides independent BESS Technical Due Diligence in Poland and Central and Eastern Europe.
Our due diligence process combines technical, grid, permitting and environmental review to identify material project risks, test key assumptions and assess alignment with applicable project requirements.
A TDD service for standalone BESS projects is structured in two independent phases, which may be contracted separately or sequentially depending on transaction needs.
BESS Technical Advisory Scope
PHASE 1 - RED FLAG ANALYSIS
Typical Scope Includes:
High-level review of key documentation available in the VDR
Identification of critical technical, permitting, land and grid-related risks
Review of environmental decision and zoning status
Land lease structure and plot consistency check
Review of grid connection and agreement status
High-level assessment of project layout maturity and installed capacity, including MW / MWh
Headline review of energy yield assumptions where available
Identification of missing information and administrative gaps
Deliverable:
Concise Red Flag Memo with structured risk classification (None / Minor / Medium / High), highlighting material risks, information gaps and mitigation considerations.
PHASE 2 - FULL TECHNICAL DUE DILIGENCE
Typical Scope Includes:
In-depth review of issued permits, licences and compliance status.
Review of outstanding permits and realistic permitting timelines to COD.
Grid interconnection and contractual review, including review of connection conditions, grid agreement and technical obligations.
Consistency check between permits, land title, project layout and grid capacity.
BESS technology and design assessment, including battery capacity configuration, PCS/EMS concept, degradation, augmentation and safety-related design assumptions
Review of installed capacity, maximum export/import capacity and key grid parameters, including MW / MWh
Operating performance review
High-level review of CAPEX and OPEX assumptions from a technical perspective.
Review of key project contracts from a technical perspective, where available, including EPC, BoP, supply and O&M documentation.
Identification of key technical, grid and permitting constraints affecting value or schedule.
Identification of key project risks, mitigation measures and residual exposures.
