“…Ebisemiju (1993) states that only 19 out of the 121 developing countries in the world have a formal EIA status. The possible reasons for the alarmingly slow pace for adopting formal EIA status in developing countries have been discussed by a number of researchers including Biswas and Geping (1987), Gamman and McCreary (1988), Lin Lewis (1989) and Ebisemiju (1993). Towle (1987), Ebisemiju (1991) and others have analysed and discussed the argument that the absence of an enabling environment for EIA in developing countries is largely responsible for the slow pace at which formal EIA is being adopted.…”

An Integrated Assessment Framework of Offshore Wind Power Projects Applying Equator Principles and Social Life Cycle Assessment

2017

This paper reviews offshore wind power project finance and provides an integrated assessment that employs Equator Principles, life cycle assessment, risk assessment, materiality analysis, credit assessment, and ISAE 3000 assurance. We have not seen any comprehensive review papers or book chapters that covers the entire offshore wind power project finance process. We also conducted an SWancor Formosa Phase 1 case study to illustrate the application of integrated assessment to better assist policymakers, wind farm developers, practitioners, potential investors and observers, and stakeholders in their decisions. We believe that this paper can form part of the effort to reduce information asymmetry and the transaction costs of wind power project finance, as well as mobilize green finance investments from the financial sector to renewable energy projects to achieve a national renewable energy policy.
