Resource Assessment and Energy Yield
Loss Tree Modelling
Independent, bankability-focused resource and energy yield assessment for renewable energy projects.
SgurrEnergy provides independent loss tree modelling services for renewable energy projects, helping clients validate production assumptions and make bankable technical and financial decisions.
Why This Service Matters
SgurrEnergy develops and reviews loss trees to ensure production estimates properly reflect technical losses, availability assumptions, degradation, grid constraints and operational realities.
When This Service Is Needed
- Yield assumptions require transparent loss allocation
- A project has technology, site or grid conditions that affect losses
- A lender requires clear explanation of production deductions
- An asset owner needs to diagnose where energy is being lost
How SgurrEnergy Helps
- Establishes the technical basis for the assessment.
- Reviews available data, project assumptions and information gaps.
- Applies bankability-focused methodology and documents assumptions clearly.
- Translates findings into client decisions around finance, design, procurement, acquisition or operations.
