Industries · Energy & Infrastructure
Technically ready is not the same as bankable.
Permits, PPAs, and engineering get a project to ready-to-build. What moves capital is documentation built to institutional standards — and that’s the gap we close.
What We See In This Industry
The patterns that bring owners to us
The documentation gap
Development teams with deep technical expertise arrive at the capital markets without the financial documentation those markets underwrite.
Models that fail diligence
Lenders adjust assumptions. A model that breaks when the rate changes — or can’t trace a number to a driver — ends the conversation.
Structure that spooks debt
Ownership consolidations and portfolio ambitions presented in ways that read as added risk instead of discipline.
How We Engage Here
The work, in this industry
- Institutional-quality business plans for lenders, infrastructure investors, and strategic capital
- Long-term financial models: draw schedules, contracted revenues, tax modeling, DSCR by year
- Conservative base cases with expansion framed as upside optionality
- Documentation structured for diligence — labeled, sourced, adjustable

Energy & Infrastructure questions
Do you work on international projects?
Yes. CMA serves infrastructure sponsors internationally — our published solar engagement was a Latin American utility-scale project with U.S.-standard lender documentation. Project finance logic travels; we build to the standard your capital sources require.
What does a project finance model include?
Construction-period funding and draw schedules, operating revenues under the executed offtake agreement, O&M forecasts with escalation, applicable tax and incentive modeling, debt assumptions with amortization, and annual plus cumulative debt service coverage — built conservative-base-case and structured for lender adjustment.
Our project is earlier stage — pre-PPA. Can you help?
Yes, with honest caveats: pre-contract projects are feasibility and positioning work, not financing packages. We help sponsors understand what bankability will require and sequence development so the documentation milestone arrives with the technical one.
