YCP in Numbers
Key Challenges We Address
Grid capacity is becoming the gatekeeper for new projects
- Europe installed about 65 GW of solar in 2024, but connection queues and underbuilt transmission still delay many wind and solar projects for years.
- YCP combines market mapping, grid screening and investment cases to prioritize viable sites, shape connection strategies and align delivery stakeholders.
Permitting pathways remain complex despite faster rules
- Renewable approval targets of 12 to 24 months have improved the policy outlook, yet local reviews, appeals and land constraints still extend timelines.
- YCP translates changing regulations into practical permitting roadmaps, stakeholder plans and commercial decisions that reduce rework and advance projects.
Project economics face higher costs and price volatility
- European wind turbine orders can require lead times of two years or more, while financing costs and volatile power prices continue to pressure returns.
- YCP links demand scenarios, cost benchmarks and merchant-price analysis to strengthen business cases, optimize portfolios and support funding discussions.
Flexibility and resilient sourcing now shape growth
- Renewables supplied nearly half of Europe’s electricity in 2024, increasing curtailment risk and the need for storage, demand response and smarter offtake.
- YCP assesses storage, demand-response and offtake options, translating market signals into portfolios that protect revenue and improve system value.
