Real estate and renewable energy: Structuring practical solutions

The right team with the right capabilities. CohnReznick’s Project Finance and Consulting team helps developers, sponsors, investors, public-private partnerships (P3s), and others execute optimal financing structures to finance new capital projects, developments, and investments in our nation’s infrastructure.

Complex financial modeling and projections 

A detailed financial model is needed to underwrite the economic viability of a project, and these models are at the heart of creating the optimal financing structure. Proper modeling requires subject matter expertise to instill confidence during the decision-making process. With a proven history of delivering innovative models for even the most sophisticated financial structures, CohnReznick has the experience to support any project.

Our team uses advanced data analytics tools to extract, manipulate, and analyze large datasets, and summarize in an easy-to-digest dashboard. We create robust financial models, including scenario analysis and model consolidation, to identify the best path forward.

Project transaction support and compliance

Opportunities for value creation occur at all stages in the lifecycle of a transaction. Working with our transaction advisory teams, we perform project level-financial modeling, due diligence, and exit strategy analysis to provide strategic intelligence to decision-makers throughout the transaction process. With the addition of CohnReznick’s experienced compliance team, we also help confirm that the demands and requirements of investors, lenders, and government entities are met.

Tax credits, Opportunity Zones, and other subsidies  

Tax credits and other subsidies may be available to provide financial support to your project. Our Project Finance and Consulting team — one of the nation’s largest and most experienced — offers you unparalleled expertise in this highly competitive project financing area. Our practice groups can be leveraged collaboratively or offer focused support with each of various types: low-income housing tax credits (LIHTC), Opportunity Zones, solar and wind (ITC/PTC), and more. 

Bidding on a concession or public private partnership

We support the different phases of the due diligence process for infrastructure assets coming to market through a concession or P3.  We have broad infrastructure investment expertise and can support decision making with comparative economics, detailed cash flow forecasting and modeling, and help implement a proper capital structure.  We also assist winning bidders with construction monitoring, ongoing management support, and interfacing with regulators.
