To demonstrably effect our commitment to the advancement of global Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) efforts, Enfin Energy Finance has developed an ESG Operating Model which is aligned and mapped the Enfin Value Chain and Project Deployment Process.
In this phase, the project team receives information from channel partners, EPC, or internal sales representatives.
The Design Engineer analyses the data and compiles the BOQ, Forecast model, yield calculation, and proposal to be presented to the client.
The Project Engineer reviews the sizing, yield calculation, and BOQ prepared in the Pre-Sales phase.
They then organize a meeting with the EPC or Design Engineer to discuss findings, compile a contract and populate the information sheet.
Assessment of project feasibility and viability of the project
Think of the ESMS as a set of checks we run on every project to make sure it is safe for people and the environment and a sound, financeable deal. The important part: we don’t do it once and forget it. We keep going round the same loop — from the first look at a deal, through building it, to running the asset — and we go round again whenever something changes.
We go round again whenever the project changes, and get better each time.
Take a first look — anything that should stop us?
Annex A: Screening Checklist
Rate the E&S risk: low, medium or high (C / B / A).
Annex B: Categorisation Matrix
Write the fixes into the deal before money moves.
Annexes G & H: ESAP / ESMP
Write the fixes into the deal before money moves.
Annexes G & H: ESAP / ESMP
Make sure the site & contractors follow the rules.
Annexes H & I: ESMP / SEP
Keep checking, handle complaints, spot changes.
Annexes J, K & L
Read it clockwise: across the top (1→2→3), down the right, back along the bottom (4→5→6), then up the left to start again. The ESMS is a circle, not a straight line.
Take a first look at the deal.
“Is there anything here that should stop us? (e.g. a land dispute, sensitive nature)”
Rate how risky it is: C (low), B (medium) or A (high).
“How careful do we need to be from here on?”
Look properly into the E&S risks we found (due diligence).
“What exactly are the problems, and how big are they?”
Put the fixes into the deal as conditions.
“What must be true and fixed before we pay out?”
Build and operate the asset with contractors following the rules.
“Are the site, the contractors and the operation doing it right?”
Keep monitoring, listen to complaints, and look for changes.
“Is it still OK — and has anything changed? If so, go round again.”
The same six steps cover the whole life of a project — first the investment and development process, then the asset lifecycle. The ESMS simply runs through both, and loops back to Step 1 whenever the project changes.
The investment & development process
Steps 1–5:
We choose what to finance, set the rules, and build it right.
The asset lifecycle
Steps 5–6:
We operate the asset, watch performance, and keep improving.
