about us

the story behind pv-contracting

in 2012, pv-contracting was established as an individual company and brand, when feed-in-tariff (FiT) subsidies in germany were radically — but necessarily — cut by the government.

germany, at the same time, was looking at the highest power prices for commercial and industrial customers across europe. thus, operating your own subsidy-free renewable power plant became economically feasible right at that moment — the writing on the wall to establish pv-contracting.

today, pv-contracting operates as a boutique advisory and contracting vehicle for solar PV and battery storage (BESS) projects — and, under its pH2Otovoltaic brand, develops integrated solar power & freshwater projects.

our vision

access to affordable clean energy for everyone — electricity supply as a human right.

our mission

become a relevant player in the decarbonisation, decentralisation and democratisation of the current energy system.

services

three service lines — one value chain

from the first site visit to financial close and beyond: pv-contracting covers the full life cycle of solar-PV and BESS projects.

01 · project development project development

pv-contracting operates in two project development fields:

industrial & utility-scale solar PV + BESS hybrid

  • site scouting and area allocation
  • consumption power load profile analysis
  • PV-BESS project design and load optimization
  • financial modeling
  • PPA consulting and negotiations
  • deliverables: self-consumption reports, investment recommendations, implementation management and operational advisory

combined solar-PV power & water distillation

  • power and water requirement studies
  • project tailoring — from module-integrated membrane distillation to utility-scale PV + RO platforms
  • PPA, WPA and HPA consulting and negotiations
→ developed under our own brand pH2Otovoltaic — be part of energy, not of climate change.
02 · boutique advisory boutique advisory

pv-contracting offers boutique advisory services in the following areas along the value chain of solar-PV project transactions:

  • project development — we help you to find the right market and identify the right partners.
  • business development — vertical or horizontal expansion, or strengthening your core operations.
  • M&A — buying or selling project companies or joint ventures: finding the right structure, the right price and evaluation.
  • EPC and O&M contracts — review of commercial, technical and legal contract aspects.
  • financial modeling — assess a new project or market opportunity commercially and financially.
  • project and financial structuring — verification of the organizational setup with all stakeholders involved.
  • PPA & BTA consulting — improve your PPA or BTA negotiation process, or find the right price level.
  • market opportunities analysis — strategic filtering and market penetration planning.
03 · project & financial structuring project and financial structuring

pv-contracting offers a decent range of project and financial structuring advice and support:

  • construction finance (mezzanine) — you hold a developed project that is legally and technically ready-to-build, but you lack the right finance to bring it online.
  • project development finance — you have already secured a couple of sweet spots to develop a solar (+) BESS power plant, but don't know how to finance the development.
  • corporate finance — you hold a great pipeline of project opportunities to realize, but your credit lines do not match.
  • non- and recourse long-term project financing — your project has achieved technically and legally ready-to-build status, or is even already online.
