Protiviti’s energy professionals partner with alternative energy providers to manage risk and improve operational performance.
The world is clamoring for alternatives to fossil fuel-based energy. Many large-scale projects are currently underway. Wind, solar, tidal and biofuels are all garnering significant attention, research and investment. Opportunities abound, yet capital costs remain high. And the cost of the energy generated is more expensive than comparable fossil fuels, especially since the rapid price declines experienced by fossil fuels during the latter part of 2008.
In addition, alternative energy providers face some of the same risks as their counterparts within the energy sector. Siting, constructing and managing large-scale alternative energy facilities is complex. The commodity produced is subject to competition within highly volatile commodity markets, and production quantities cannot be assured as easily as other forms of energy available within the market. As a result of these issues, tax incentives remain a particularly important issue for alternative energy providers.

We help our clients identify, measure, and manage their regulatory, financial, operational and technology-related risks. Our energy professionals possess finance, technology, accounting and engineering backgrounds, and a wide range of industry experience that can be leveraged to deliver tailored solutions to your company.
