For Buy-Side

Initially, investing in renewable energy itself was considered high-risk when FIT was introduced. However, foreign companies with prior experience in Europe and Japanese companies that actively engaged in the design and implementation of FIT systems led the development. 

​

Currently, with a significant shift in risk perception, buy-side players have also undergone substantial changes. Capital-intensive investment funds, for instance, are expected to participate in capital as early as possible. This is because they cannot compete with companies that possess an overwhelming competitive advantage in terms of capital costs at a later stage. 

​

To become a competitive buy-side player, it is necessary to deploy financing methods that support the asset turnover rate of developers and provide integrated solutions for later stages, including sourcing of off-takers.

 

By highlighting the "benefits of collaboration" with developers, the buy-side needs to appeal to them. It is also crucial to establish a clear cooperative relationship with the sell-side during the business planning stage.
