De-risk your solar farm and battery project.

Seeking to add 1000’s of MW of BESS and solar to your portfolio?

We assist experienced global developers to expand your portfolios in Australia by:

• Targeting new greenfield areas to suit your preferred project MW scale and regional focus.
• Providing pre-developed BESS and solar farm site opportunities with land exclusivity agreements already in place.
• Providing independent due diligence on site acquisition options you are considering.
• Supporting your development team by becoming a trusted long term partner.
• Sharing development risk with you by providing base fee plus success fee structures .

Need to secure land before spending big bucks on grid enquiries? ‍

Competition for grid capacity and land is fierce.

Enhar targets strategic grid capacity locations where suitable land is available to secure the right land in the right locations. Such places include lower value grazing country adjacent to substations, with unrestrictive planning zoning.

Our team researches landowners before meeting face to face so we can get straight down to business.

Through experienced landowner negotiation, Enhar secures Lease Option agreements which are commercially and legally sound.

Need a simple path to development approval?

Enhar manages and delivers the full planning permit process for solar farms and BESS projects to ensure that:

• The land selected, and concept design, has good prospects of receiving approvals
• We consult the planning authority for early feedback and positive relationships with staff in government
• Early surveys are conducted to de-risk the process
• Bottlenecks are avoided to ensure final approvals are obtained sooner

We can manage multiple approvals concurrently, leveraging economies of scale and efficiencies.

Developers of utility solar farm and BESS who wish to strategically invest in expansion of their portfolios require feasibility studies to into grid capacity, planning and land viabilty on a regional level, then drilling into site specific feasibility.

We integrate the disciplines necessary to de-risk project holistically and can bundle this into competitive feasibility reports for our clients.

For the Australian local government sector and University clients we have a long history of providing feasibility and business cases for <5MW solar farms and storage.

Due diligence examines risks relating to land agreements, development approvals, engineering design, energy yield forecasts, EPC contracts and more.

These risks must be known and used to inform project investment and acquisition decisions. 

Enhar's expertise is in large scale solar farms and battery storage projects and have completed due diligence on countless projects through development and design documentation. We also provide reviews and risk tables for you and your investors to evaluate the project.

A successful solar energy project requires investment, and to gain adequate support it has to demonstrate technical and financial viability. Enhar provide independent, accurate and reliable assessments of the expected energy yield of your project, that can be used by developers to secure funding for projects.

Our solar farm energy yield assessments take into account numerous factors to accurately determine the expected annual energy yield, the performance ratio and probabilities of exceedance cases of your project in both the long and short term.

Grid connection is the most significant challenge facing large-scale solar energy projects. Over the years, Enhar’s team has developed strong relationships with TNSPs, DNSPs and AEMO to ensure that we secure approvals to connect in a timely and efficient manner.

We manage this process on behalf of our clients from pre-feasibility, enquiry, application all the way through to the final approval.

We have close relationships with grid modelling experts who we manage to satisfy AEMO requirements.

Enhars team includes Registered Professional Electrical Engineers, CEC accredited designers and electrical installation experts can assist with all medium to large-scale solar and hybrid technical designs to suit our client’s needs.

Our qualified and certified team of electricians and engineers undertake system commissioning services to ensure a safe and successful system energisation. We can provide a range of services suited to our clients’ requirements including:

• Commissioning and Test Report audits.
• Technical support to navigate the complicated commissioning requirements set out by network operators and ensure it is done correctly.
• Protection Testing, Injection Testing and Power Quality Testing.
• Comprehensive inspection services pre energisation.
• Solar DB and switchboard inspection and compliance.

As an Owners’ Engineer we provide ongoing review and assessment of all aspects of the design and engineering associated with the solar farm or BESS project.

We coordinate with all the stakeholders effectively to maintain clear lines of communication and ensure there are no lapses throughout the execution of the project.

Enhar has extensive experience in managing solar projects all the way from conception to commissioning.

As such our team has a solid understanding of what it takes to develop a project and navigate the financial, legal, technical and regulatory hurdles to ensure a successful outcome. Enhar works closely with our clients’  legal, finance, engineering and commercial teams to move a project to Financial Close.

Ongoing analysis and benchmarking of solar farm yield data is key to ensuring optimal performance of your solar asset and that it is meetings its financial expectations. And to ensure safety it is critical to have a reactive and preventive maintenance and rectification plan in place.

We provide technical solar and storage asset management services, including monitoring and maintenance, to ensure your assets are performing in line with expectations and achieving energy generation targets and complying with degradation warranties.
