Advisory Services

GreenStream provides advisory services in the climate and renewable energy sectors´ particularly in the area of investment projects. Everything we do is related to promoting investments in greenhouse gas emissions reduction and renewable energy projects. Our policy analysis and development services aim at improving the investment environment and bankability of these projects. Our geographical coverage is Northern Europe as well as developing countries, with special focus on China, Southern Africa and South-East Asia.

Carbon project and finance services

In the climate sector our core competence includes CDM/JI project development, carbon market transactions and carbon portfolio management and risk assessment. For example, we manage the CDM/JI portfolio of the Government of Finland. In addition, we have a strong knowledge base in policy and market studies related to both existing market mechanisms, such as the Kyoto mechanisms and the EU ETS, and “new mechanisms”, such as sectoral crediting and NAMAs.

Renewable energy project and finance services

In the renewable energy sector we are involved in various investment projects as financial advisors. In this field our services typically include investment analysis, valuation, as well as financial planning and arrangements. Our clients are often project developers, external investors or technology companies. Wind power, hydro power and biogas are at the core of our expertise. For instance, GreenStream carried out the investment analysis for one of the largest landfill gas projects in the world (the Ämmässuo landfill). GreenStream also participates in the design of instruments for promoting renewable energy, such as feed-in tariffs and market based schemes including renewable energy certificate schemes and the European Union’s RES co-operation mechanisms.
