Environmental Due Diligence Guidelines

The Guidelines on Environmental Due Diligence for Renewable Energy Technologies are a practical tool for financiers and investors to check and mitigate their risk of investments in this sector.

The EDD guidelines are intended to provide practical, standardised procedures for identifying and managing environmental impacts associated with investments in particular renewable energy technologies.

EDD guidelines are available for the following technologies: wind, solar PV, solar thermal, biogas, biomass systems based on agricultural and forestry waste, biomass systems based on energy crops, geothermal, and small-scale hydroelectric.

In order to make the EDD guidelines more user friendly a stakeholder consultation was carried-out by BASE.
