How we actually approach site screening, market modelling, land risk, and transaction diligence across Gas & LNG, Power & Renewables, and Metals & Mining — written for the people who have to defend the answer, not just read it.
A site that looks excellent on a resource map can still fail on grid, land, or permitting. The screening sequence exists to catch that before feasibility-grade money is spent finding out.
A demand narrative that reads well in a boardroom and a market study that survives a lender's technical adviser are two different documents. Most of the gap is method, not conclusion.
Most ESG diligence produces a compliance file and changes nothing. The findings that move price or structure come from a small number of specific, well-chosen questions.
Grid and permitting risk get modelled. Land risk usually gets a title search and a handshake — then resurfaces, expensively, after financial close.
