In a market shaped by delivery constraints and rising operational complexity, value creation does not stop once a deal is done, and increasingly it starts well before. This session explores how investors and operators build long-term platform performance, from due diligence that looks beyond the financials at management teams, systems, permitting and social licence to operate, through to the people, processes and tools that protect revenue once an asset is live.

Hear how community engagement and genuine heat reuse are becoming part of how assets are underwritten and how scarce power gets allocated, how investors can provide discipline when customers push for speed to market, and why customer selection and contract structures now shape a platform's ability to raise capital. Examine how investors and management teams keep strategy aligned across a 10 to 20-year asset life, not just to exit.
