Investing in ready-to-build projects

Opportunities, risks and challenges for investors

Ready-to-build (RTB) wind projects are considered an attractive investment class between early project development and operational existing plants. They offer investors the opportunity to participate in fully approved projects that are ready for construction and to enter the value chain comparatively quickly.

At the same time, RTB investments require a realistic assessment of opportunities, risks and implementation challenges. This overview is aimed at investors who take a strategic and long-term view of wind energy.

What distinguishes RTB wind projects?

RTB projects are at an advanced stage of development.
As a rule, the following are present:
  • legally binding permits
  • secured land rights
  • Confirmed or planned grid connection
  • basic technical planning
  • First reliable profitability assumptions
Construction can start at short notice, provided that financing and implementation are secured.

Opportunities for investors

  1. Fast market entry
    Due to the high level of development, the time until commissioning is significantly shortened. Income is realized earlier, capital is used more efficiently.
  2. Attractive risk-return ratio
    RTB projects often offer higher return opportunities than existing operating assets, while at the same time having lower risks than early development phases.
  3. Contribution to the energy transition
    RTB investments provide direct support for the expansion of renewable generation capacities and enable measurable ecological impact.
  4. Flexible strategies
    Investors can operate projects on a long-term basis, sell them after commissioning or enter into partial investments – depending on the market and portfolio goals.

Risks Investors Should Consider

  1. Construction and time risks
    Delays can also occur in approved projects, for example due to supply chain problems, construction capacities or weather influences.
  2. Cost risks
    Rising material, construction and financing costs play a central role. Inflation and interest rate developments play a central role.
  3. Revenue and market risks
    Dependence on electricity prices, subsidy mechanisms or PPAs can lead to fluctuations in revenue – especially in the case of market-price-oriented models.
  4. Residual risks in the approval environment
    Legal disputes, additional requirements or external influences cannot be completely ruled out even at the RTB stage.

Key challenges in RTB investments

  • Quality of project preparation
    Not every RTB project is created equal. The quality of the permit, yield report and planning determines the later success.
  • Transition from development to operation
    RTB projects require a clean interplay between project development, construction phase and long-term operation.
  • Complex financing structures
    The construction phase brings different requirements for financing, collateral and cash flow profiles than pure operation.
  • Competition for high-quality projects
    The demand for RTB projects is high. Investors should evaluate opportunities quickly without sacrificing due diligence.

Success factors for investors

  • Comprehensive technical, legal and economic review
  • Conservative assumptions on costs and revenues
  • Experienced project and implementation partners
  • Operational and exit strategy defined at an early stage
  • Long-term perspective and risk awareness

Conclusion

Ready-to-build wind projects offer investors the opportunity to participate in the realization of new wind turbines at an early stage without having to bear the uncertainties of early project development. With careful selection and professional implementation, they can be an attractive part of a sustainable investment portfolio.

At the same time, construction, cost and market risks remain and require a structured approach and realistic expectations.
