Environmental authorisations, land rights and consents.

Construction and supply chain

Equipment delays, cost overruns and contractor failure.

Performance

Yield, availability and maintenance below the financial model.

Offtake and funding

Power purchase terms, lender covenants and currency exposure.

Community and local content

Commitments on ownership, jobs and development.
