Better contact key to remove renewable projects from the ground

Renewable energy companies can shorten the long approval process needed for their projects by better communicating with stakeholders, according to experts.

Kristina Shem, senior sustainability employee in IBM, said that shepherds need to focus on the value of work – as well as environmental benefits – when discussing their projects.

“There are some tight words now, depending on the place where you sit around the world, and I think that the more you can determine the value of the work of what you do and link them, again, commercial operations and commercial decisions, it will be more important,” Shim said on Thursday.

“As long as the results are similar, you only need to ensure that you are communicating in an appropriate way with the right stakeholders.”

I compared this how one can speak to the financial manager, opposite the investor, opposite someone in purchases. “You have to talk about things a little different.”

Mitesh Patel, temporary CEO and director of operations at SUNCABLE International, agrees that controlling communication for the appropriate audience is very important.

“For politicians, voters are their electoral district, not your project or not your company. You have to help them translate the benefits that your project will bring into the components,” said Patel, whose company connects solar energy from Australia via the lower cables.

The project, is called Australia and Asia Porlink, is Its value is estimated at about 24 billion dollars Singapore is expected to provide 1.75 GB of electricity – or around it 15 % of her electricity needsAccording to the company.

The Shim and Patel comments, who were talking to Steve Seedgoyk from CNBC on a painting in Singapore, come at a time when renewable energy projects take many years to leave the ground.

A a report From the Global Infrastructure Center, which is part of the Consultative Infrastructure Faculty of the World Bank of the World Bank, it noticed the complex nature of the required preparation before the start of the infrastructure project. The average project preparation time has been put in 6 years, but he said that it may take up to 14 years if the project is not planned correctly.

Cent Alper, CEO of Sabanci Holding, a Turkish group, said the biggest obstacle to obtaining renewable energy projects is often organizational.

“The biggest problem is still a government – permits. Because it is a license to make the project ready, the total time is longer than the time of construction,” he said.

He added that the situation in Europe is worse, citing a project that took two years to communicate with the network.

Alber said that Western countries need to simplify the process of approving renewable energy projects, noting that China has begun more projects in the past five years more than the rest of the world combined.
