From site to ready-to-build status - support at every stage
Ready-to-Build - construction readiness
Ready-to-Build (RTB) status means that a renewable energy project holds the full set of permits, grid connection conditions, environmental decisions and agreements required to start construction. An RTB project is ready for financing and delivery - it is the highest stage of development maturity before the EPC phase.
Reaching RTB status requires going through a series of administrative, technical and legal stages. GCC Energy runs this process end to end - from site identification to closing the final milestone.
Stages of the development process
Every renewable energy project goes through defined phases, each of which requires specialist expertise and coordination with many stakeholders.
From site to RTB - step by step
Site identification
Analysis of the site potential - local zoning plan conditions, distance to the GPZ substation, land class, environmental constraints. Selection of the best plots for a renewable energy investment.
Securing the land
Negotiation of lease agreements or preliminary sale agreements. Verification of the legal status of the property, the land and mortgage register (KW), easements and encumbrances.
Grid connection conditions
Preparation and submission of the application for grid connection conditions to the DSO/PSE. Coordination of the connection process, negotiation of the grid connection agreement.
Environmental decision
Preparation of the project information sheet (KIP) or the environmental impact assessment report (OOŚ). Obtaining the environmental decision (DŚU) from the RDOŚ or from the commune head.
Building permit
Coordination of the construction design, obtaining the building permit (PnB) or the construction notification. Supervision over the compilation of the technical documentation.
RTB status
Completion of all permits and documents. Verification of the project readiness - an RTB checklist covering legal, technical, regulatory and financial aspects. The project is ready for a transaction or for construction.
