Solar Mango strongly believes that DPR is not just a protocol document for the banks and other stakeholders to have it in their files.

Developing a DPR that convinces the relevant stakeholders about the viability of the project in a scientific and justifiable manner could make all the difference between Yes and No for the project.

Who is it for?

  • Large Conglomerates/Businesses looking to diversify into module & cell Manufacturing
  • Entrepreneurs/startups keen on venturing into module manufacturing business
  • Small and medium businesses interested in diversifying into solar module manufacturing
  • Solar businesses – EPCs, developers, system integrators, component manufacturers, service providers – keen on vertical integration into a module manufacturer

What is the Benefit?

This DPR, in addition to providing detailed inputs on the business model, technology used, land and location details and financials, also includes sections on risks and risk mitigation that clearly spell out areas of uncertainties, and also how the adverse effects of each uncertainty can be mitigated.

Give special care to this section of Risks and Risk Mitigation, because this is how you clearly prove to your board or to your external financial investor that your professional team knows what exactly it is doing. Banks and financial institutions do take some risks, as long as they understand the nature of risks involved, and where possible, having a metric to quantify those risks.
