Many climate companies know their technology can work, but struggle to translate that into a financeable, buildable project. This session will break down how strong developers create asset value, sequence risk retirement, and build the execution discipline needed to move from pilot or FOAK ambition toward commercial deployment. Key themes include:
- How project asset value is actually created across technical, commercial, financial, and stakeholder workstreams
- Why project development is fundamentally a risk-retirement exercise
- How to structure development work into stage gates and fundable milestones
- The core tools that drive execution: tracker, budget, schedule, risk register, and stakeholder plan
- How to avoid common execution gaps that stall first commercial projects
