CHALLENGE FACED

A developer based in Oregon presented a dairy project opportunity to Leyline Renewable Capital. Leyline Renewable Capital, was considering investing in the opportunity but wanted to gain a full scope of the project’s bottom line beforehand.

The team was presented with information from various streams, including the main developer and construction company. To perform a stress test of the opportunity, data validation should be involved.

WHY ANESSA?

Leyline Renewable Capital sought out anessa to review and validate the information provided. Using anessa AD•A, the team was able to assess the parameters involved and identify discrepancies that required immediate attention.

THE RESULTS

A risk assessment analysis report generated by AD•A helped pinpoint the discrepancy in the input variables and the functional parameters, which helped find key aspects that enabled Leyline to make efficient decisions. anessa AD•A was able to prevent an overestimation of 21,000,000 ft³ of biogas per year. At nearly 12,000 MMBtu yearly, this discrepancy equates to an overestimation of 800,000 USD in annual total revenue.

When presented with this use case, our solution enabled Leyline to gain further insight into their opportunities.
