Technical Studies & Advisory for Utility-Scale Solar
Clenergize delivers independent technical, grid, environmental, and financial studies for utility-scale solar, EHV-connected renewable energy, and complex grid-integration projects. Our studies support regulatory approvals, grid-code compliance, lender due diligence, and Final Investment Decision (FID) across the Middle East, Africa, and Asia.
Grid & Power System Studies
Grid and power system studies assess how a solar or hybrid power plant interacts with the existing transmission or distribution network. We help developers, utilities, and investors validate connection feasibility, identify network constraints, and define mitigation measures for grid approval.
Typical Deliverables:
Load Flow / Power Flow Study
Short-Circuit Level & Fault Analysis
Protection Coordination Study
Reactive Power & Voltage Control Assessment
Harmonic & Power Quality Analysis (IEEE 519 / Utility Standards)
Grid Code Compliance Assessment
Network Reinforcement and Upgrade Recommendations
Dynamic Stability & Grid Code Compliance
Dynamic and stability studies are critical for large renewable projects connected to weak or constrained grids. We evaluate plant behaviour during grid disturbances, faults, and frequency events to ensure stable operation and compliance with utility and system operator requirements.
Typical Deliverables:
Transient and Dynamic Stability Study
Fault Ride-Through (LVRT / HVRT) Assessment
Frequency Stability & Ramp-Rate Analysis
Inverter and Plant Controller Modelling Review
PSCAD / DIgSILENT Simulation Reports
Grid Compliance Matrices and Utility Submission Documentation
EHV Substation & Transmission Engineering
Electrical and EHV engineering studies translate grid requirements into robust designs for substations, transmission lines, and interconnection facilities. We support concept-to-detailed engineering suitable for utility approvals, EPC tendering, and construction planning.
Typical Deliverables:
EHV Substation Concept and Configuration Studies (AIS / GIS)
Single-Line Diagrams (SLDs) and Protection Philosophy
Overhead Transmission Line (OHTL) Routing and Design Studies
Earthing & Grounding System Design
Insulation Coordination and Lightning Protection Studies
Arc-Flash Hazard and Electrical Safety Assessment
Energy Yield & Bankability Studies
Energy yield and resource assessment studies establish the technical and financial bankability of a solar project. We deliver independent, data-driven assessments of solar resource, system losses, and long-term performance aligned with international best practices.
Typical Deliverables:
Solar Resource Assessment and Long-Term Correction
PV System Modelling and Simulation (PVsyst or Equivalent)
P50 / P75 / P90 Energy Yield Analysis
Loss Breakdown (Soiling, Degradation, Clipping, Availability)
Technology and Layout Optimisation Studies
Inputs for Financial and Lender Models
Environmental, Social & Permitting Advisory
Environmental and social studies are essential for regulatory approvals, stakeholder acceptance, and access to project finance. We support assessments aligned with local regulations and international lender standards (IFC Performance Standards, Equator Principles).
Typical Deliverables:
Environmental & Social Impact Assessment (ESIA)
Biodiversity and Habitat Impact Studies
Stakeholder Engagement and Consultation Reports
Land-Use, Resettlement, and Social Risk Assessments
Environmental Management and Monitoring Plans
Lender and ESG Compliance Documentation
Techno-Economic & Pre-FID Advisory
Techno-economic studies support early-stage decision-making and Final Investment Decision (FID) for utility-scale renewable energy projects. We integrate technical performance, grid constraints, and cost assumptions into robust feasibility assessments for developers, investors, and lenders.
Typical Deliverables:
Techno-Economic Feasibility Studies
CAPEX and OPEX Benchmarking
LCOE and Tariff Sensitivity Analysis
Grid Connection and Upgrade Cost Assessment
Risk Register and Mitigation Framework
Pre-FID Investment and Decision-Support Reports
Why Choose Clenergize for Technical Studies?
Independent Advisory — No equipment sales or EPC interests; analysis focused solely on supporting informed decision-making
Regional Expertise — Extensive experience with grid codes, utility requirements, and regulatory frameworks across MENA, Africa, and Asia
Lender-Ready Deliverables — Studies structured to satisfy technical due diligence requirements for project financing
End-to-End Capability — Coverage from early-stage feasibility through grid compliance and construction-phase validation
A grid integration study assesses how a solar plant connects to the transmission or distribution network, including load flow, fault levels, protection coordination, and compliance with local grid codes.
Lenders and investors require independent energy yield assessments (P50/P75/P90) to evaluate project risk and validate revenue projections before committing capital.
Our studies align with international standards including IEC, IEEE, GHG Protocol, IFC Performance Standards, and local utility grid codes as applicable.
Yes. We support utility-scale solar projects across MENA, Africa, India, and Southeast Asia with technical studies, grid compliance, and lender due diligence.
We prepare technical documentation required for grid connection approvals, environmental permits, and utility submissions across multiple jurisdictions.
