Clean energy, sustainable production and growth: a study of your project, financing options and strategic connections.
Request a study
From sustainable ideas to real opportunities.
Looking to develop or expand a sustainable project? BE1’s international team and investor network can study your project, explore financing options and connect you with relevant business opportunities. The support combines business development and sustainable solutions, with an international perspective and long-term impact.
Who is this solution for?
Brands, start-ups and SMEs with a renewable energy, energy efficiency, circular economy or sustainable production project.
BE1 accompanies brands, start-ups and SMEs in their public marketing campaigns and extensions from the idea to the market, including advising support to CEOs and shareholders.
Clean energy
Renewable energy and energy efficiency: clarify investments, expected savings and project viability.
Green industry
Circular economy and sustainable production: study the assets, the industrial model and the needs linked to development.
Business growth
Explore financing introductions and strategic connections suited to your expansion.
The steps of your request
An indicative path, adapted to each file and to lenders’ requirements. The study is not a financing agreement.
- 01
Submit your request
Send a summary of the company, the financing need, assets, cash position and deadlines. Agree with BE1 on a suitable way to share sensitive documents before sending them.
- 02
Study assets and financial situation
BE1 studies your intellectual and industrial property, your debts, credits and subsidies to assess whether a bank credit or the monetisation of your IP assets, including placement and trade developments, is applicable.
- 03
Assess the sustainable project
Review technical maturity, budget, timeline, applicable permits and documented impact indicators. Any stated environmental benefits must be substantiated.
- 04
Explore solutions and build the file
Identify suitable options and, where relevant, the right partners. Complete the documents requested for their analysis. Any introduction or review of the file remains subject to the checks and criteria of the parties involved.
- 05
Validate the terms and take out insurance
Before any commitment, review the written proposal: amount, rate, total cost, term, schedule and guarantees. The company or borrower will have to take out insurance covering the future credit; cover, exclusions, premiums and acceptance conditions must be checked with the lender and the insurer.
- 06
Sign and follow implementation
If the file is accepted, sign the contracts after checking the terms and insurance cover. Release of funds depends on meeting the agreed conditions. Then organise the follow-up of repayments and commitments.
Insurance of the future credit
The company or borrower will have to take out insurance covering the future credit. This obligation applies to any new credit granted under this solution.
Cover must meet the lender’s requirements. Covered risks, exclusions, any waiting periods, premiums and cover duration must be confirmed with the insurer. Taking out insurance does not guarantee credit approval.
Prepare your file
- Company identity, executives and shareholding structure
- Inventory of intellectual and industrial property assets
- Project presentation, technology and stage of development
- Investment budget, quotes and financing plan
- Cash-flow forecasts and commercial assumptions
- Applicable permits and measurable environmental impact data
Conditions and points of attention
No rate, amount or financing timeline is announced for this category. Any financing or partnership depends on the project’s eligibility and the approval of the partners involved.
Access to solutions depends in particular on the file, repayment capacity, identity and compliance checks, guarantees and partner approval. No processing time or outcome is guaranteed. This information is general and does not replace individual financial, tax or legal advice.
