With supply chain woes, tariff changes and the anti-dumping investigation, the war in Ukraine, extreme weather, and other unforeseeable events rocking the markets, renewable energy projects need cost and revenue certainty now more than ever. For more and more projects, hedges are the key to successfully create this certainty and secure tax equity and other financings, as hedges become a larger part of development, finance, and risk management. However, hedging involves complex tradeoffs, and it can be difficult to understand the pros and cons of various hedge products. Moreover, risk assessments have changed drastically over the past year as the market is beset with unforeseeable uncertainties. As hedge provisions change with the markets, counterparties must learn which provisions are still moving forward, and how they impact the risks and rewards of renewable energy projects.
