Waste Sector Commercial Due Diligence
Global Commercial Due Diligence Services for Waste Sustainability
We recognise that projects in the waste infrastructure, renewables and circular economy sector come with their own distinct risk profiles. These can be mapped across the project’s waste input, process technology and associated infrastructure, and waste output stages.
Appropriate due diligence is an essential assurance that provides businesses with the confidence that proposed investments will support business plans and deliver the expected returns. Therefore, the commercial due diligence process needs specialist expertise and reliable information to provide an informed assessment. This allows investors, waste management companies, and developers to understand the risk and opportunities, put a value on them, make the right decisions, and identify mitigation and ‘added value’ strategies.
Anthesis can support with commercial due diligence for the full range of waste infrastructure, including:
- Material separation, sorting, and preparation facilities
- Dry recyclables recycling, including mechanical and advanced plastics recycling processes
- Mechanical biological treatment
- Biological waste treatment (anaerobic digestion, composting)
- Energy from waste processes (incineration, gasification, pyrolysis)
- Biochar production (carbonisation, pyrolysis)
- Carbon capture technologies
Anthesis provides waste due diligence guidance to investors, developers, operators and multinational institutions, with deep commercial expertise of waste treatment and renewable energy technologies, policy insight, and extensive knowledge in the waste management and clean technology sectors.
We can support with:
- Pre-deal screening
- In-deal evaluation
