Comprehensive advisory services covering investment, financing, tax, audit and regulatory compliance processes in energy generation, distribution and infrastructure projects.
Industry risks
Key areas of risk
We assess tax, audit, social security and operational compliance in the context of your industry.
Complexity of investment and project financing
High capital requirements, long payback periods, loan agreements, collateral structures and project-based financing models have tax and reporting implications.
Incentives, licensing and regulatory compliance
Energy market regulations, licensing processes, investment incentives, local obligations and reporting to public authorities require continuous monitoring.
VAT, customs and import transactions
VAT, customs duties, exemptions, refunds and offsets relating to purchases of machinery, equipment, technology and services may directly affect cash flow and cost structures.
Contract and supply chain risk
Tax, stamp duty, withholding tax and liability provisions must be properly structured in EPC, maintenance, operation, procurement, subcontracting and public-sector contracts.
Investment incentive certificates, VAT exemptions, customs duty exemptions and support measures must be properly managed throughout the project life cycle.
Tax and contract advisory
It is important to analyze the tax implications of financing, procurement, EPC, operation and maintenance contracts and identify potential costs in advance.
VAT refunds and cash flow planning
VAT burdens incurred during the investment period, refund and offset opportunities and the release of guarantees must be planned in alignment with cash flow.
Independent audit and financial reporting
Reliable and comparable financial statements prepared in accordance with applicable standards are critical for project financing, investor relations and lender reporting.
Risk management and internal control framework
Control points must be strengthened across procurement, progress payments, project budgeting, asset management, regulatory compliance and reporting processes.
