Financely provides funding solutions for mini grid and distributed solar developers. We arrange debt, mezzanine, and bridge facilities based on verifiable project cash flows, with additional revenue from I-RECs and carbon credits where applicable. Our role is to make projects bankable, structure risk, and secure the right lenders to move from feasibility to COD. No em dashes are used in this document.
Mini grid and C&I solar projects can unlock additional returns by registering for International Renewable Energy Certificates (I-RECs) and verified carbon credits. These certificates represent the environmental attributes of clean electricity generated and can be sold to corporates seeking renewable coverage. The result is a stronger DSCR profile and enhanced financial sustainability.
Financely’s carbon desk coordinates I-REC registration, issuance, and off-take contracts. For projects displacing diesel generation, carbon credit registration can add another layer of monetizable output. Revenue streams are structured within the project waterfall to support debt repayment or improve equity IRR.
You submit an RFQ with site data, tariff or PPA terms, EPC details, and generation forecasts. We review and provide a tailored term sheet outlining structure, costs, and conditions.
Our team runs technical, financial, and legal due diligence. Lenders are selected based on appetite, jurisdiction, and deal size. Financing structure and covenants are finalized.
Projects are registered for I-RECs issuance and, if eligible, for carbon credit programs. Revenues are modeled and integrated into the project’s financial structure.
Once credit approval is achieved, finance documents are signed, conditions precedent are met, and the first drawdown is released under controlled disbursement rules.
Each engagement is managed by specialists who have closed energy and infrastructure deals in emerging and developed markets. Their combined experience covers debt structuring, certificate monetization, and project due diligence.
Maya has over 12 years of experience in energy project finance with a focus on distributed solar and storage. She has structured and closed facilities across East and West Africa, GCC, and Asia, ranging from 2 MWp to 80 MWp. Her approach balances strong credit structures with pragmatic timelines that move projects to COD.
Luis brings more than 10 years of experience in environmental markets. He leads the I-RECs and carbon structuring work, coordinating registration, verification, and offtake agreements. He ensures certificate monetization aligns with lender requirements and cash flow waterfalls.
Sanjay is a former independent engineer with 9 years of experience in PV, storage, and rural grid systems. He oversees the technical data room, EPC contracts, and O&M plans to ensure projects meet bankable standards and achieve timely completion.
