Project development
The technology, planned use, ownership structure and development schedule.
Energy.
Advice for businesses developing energy projects and technology, evaluating incentives and coordinating the specialist work a project requires.
Industry context
Put the project details first.
Energy projects involve a sequence of decisions about technology, ownership, contracting, construction and operations. Those facts also shape the questions that need to be addressed in an incentive review.
We help organize the project information, identify the applicable specialist work and coordinate with your existing advisers and project team.
Technical work
Engineering and development projects, the questions being addressed and supporting records.
Execution & coordination
Responsibilities across owners, developers, contractors and tax advisers.
Where we
can help.
We define the engagement around the questions you need answered and the information available.
Evaluate the scope for an incentive review
Identify the project, tax years, parties and relevant milestones before assessing which programs merit further review.
Review technical development
Discuss development activities and available records to determine whether a separate R&D analysis is appropriate.
Coordinate specialist input
Work with the relevant advisers and partners to identify documentation, technical assessments and responsibilities needed for the engagement.
A closer look
Timing belongs in the first discussion.
A useful project review needs dates as well as technical facts. We ask about the development schedule, contracting, construction and operating milestones, then confirm which events matter under the rules being considered.
Preparing to talk
What to bring to
the first discussion.
Bring a project description, locations, ownership information, estimated schedule and the advisers already involved. Identify which agreements are signed and which decisions remain open.
You do not need to assemble a full study before speaking with us. The initial conversation helps establish whether there is a useful scope for Royse and what the next step would involve.
Questions
to work through.
These points help frame the discussion. Conclusions depend on the engagement facts.
Can you confirm the available credits from a project description?
A description is a starting point. Eligibility, current program rules, timing and documentation requirements need to be checked against the project facts before any conclusion is offered.
Who handles engineering or other specialist requirements?
We identify those needs during scoping and agree on the responsible professionals. Partner involvement and deliverables should be clear in the engagement before work begins.
