RCT Solutions GmbH – Solar Manufacturing Engineering
End-to-end engineering for giga-scale PV manufacturing, from polisilicon to module.
Lender’s Engineering
Independent technical assurance for PV factory financing and delivery
We act as the lender’s independent technical advisor—validating assumptions, quantifying risks, and monitoring delivery from feasibility and contracts through construction, commissioning, and performance testing.

Due Diligence (Independent Engineer Scope)
Independent, decision-grade assurance for financiers. We verify assumptions pre-close, monitor evidence during construction, and confirm performance at completion—issuing conditions precedent (pre-funding requirements), drawdown recommendations, and completion certificates.
Validate DPR/feasibility, market–technology fit, site & utilities readiness, layout/FUM concepts.
Stress-test CAPEX/OPEX and schedule assumptions; check contingencies and procurement realism.
Review permits, HSE/ESG baseline and compliance pathway.
Review draft contracts, acceptance tests, warranties, LDs.
Deliver an Initial Due Diligence Report with prioritized mitigations and Conditions Precedent (CPs).
Verify CP fulfillment; readiness to proceed.
Monthly/quarterly Monitoring Reports: schedule/cost status, quality observations, risks, corrective actions.
Drawdown Recommendations tied to evidence (photos, test records, invoices, delivery notes).
Site inspections and close-out tracking of actions.
Witness/review FAT/SAT/IQ/OQ/PQ as agreed; confirm results against contract.
Verify performance warranties, spares/O&M readiness and documentation.
Issue Completion & Performance Certificates (or punch-list with actions) for final drawdowns and handover.
Frequently asked questions
How is Lender’s Engineering different from Owner’s Engineering?
Lender’s Engineering (LE) is independent assurance for financiers—reviewing and monitoring risk without directing execution. Owner’s Engineering (OE) represents the owner—shaping scope, design quality, procurement, and delivery.
We have made a comperison page for a clear understanding between the engineering services. For details, please visit the page here.
Can you start before financing is finalized?
Yes. We perform initial due diligence pre-close, then continue with monitoring due diligence through construction and commissioning.
Do you replace the EPC or the owner’s engineer?
No. We remain independent, coordinating with both and focusing on lender-relevant risks, evidence, and certification for approvals and drawdowns.
What do you need from us to begin?
Latest DPR/feasibility, draft/final contracts, schedules, permits list, ESG documentation, and the lender’s model structure for technical inputs.
