What it is

The case a CFO and a bank will sign.

Bankable is the highest-fidelity engagement. We monitor over an extended period, build and calibrate an energy and waste model to your real plant, complete detailed engineering design, and wrap it in a full financial model — so the project can be financed, delivered and its performance guaranteed and verified.

  • Extended monitoring & calibrated model — simulation tuned to measured performance.
  • Detailed engineering design — specifications, drawings and scope ready for delivery.
  • Financial modelling — IRR, NPV, cash flow and financing options (incl. ESCO / performance-contract structures).
  • Guaranteed savings & M&V plan — if verified savings fall short of projection, we pay the difference and keep tuning until you’re back on target.
  • Measured & verifiable savings — quantified to international IPMVP protocol, so results are transparent, auditable and stand up to any financier.
What you walk away with

  • Detailed design & specifications

Illustrative sample output for a mid-size facility — your Athar investment case is built and calibrated on your plant’s measured data, with figures, financing structure and M&V plan specific to your project.

Turnkey delivery

We don’t just advise — we build it and prove it.

Bankable doesn’t end with a report. Athar can deliver the whole project end to end — procurement, installation, integration and commissioning — then measure and verify the savings from live data and stand behind them. One accountable partner, from the number to the guaranteed result.

01

Procure

We source and procure the specified plant and materials — managing suppliers, lead times and quality on your behalf.

02

Install

Our own engineers and technicians install and mechanically and electrically integrate the new plant — safely, tidily and to standard.

03

Integrate & control

We connect meters, sensors, drives and controls into the Sifr edge gateway and cloud — new equipment and existing.

04

Commission & test

Every system is commissioned, balanced and tested against real load, with performance validated end to end.

05

Monitor & verify

We measure and verify the savings from live data to IPMVP, report against the guarantee, and stay on to sustain performance.

In-house engineers & technicians Single accountable partner Measured & verified — IPMVP
The guarantee

Guaranteed savings — we cover the gap.

Post-Bankable, we guarantee the savings we projected and verify the actual result from live data to IPMVP. If your verified savings ever fall short of the promise, we pay you the difference — and keep engineering the plant until it’s back on target. You get the savings we committed to, one way or another.

1%
savings fall 1% short of projection → we pay you that 1% difference
2%
2% short → we pay you the 2% difference
3%
3% short → we pay you the 3% difference
No cap · our promise
Any gap
whatever the shortfall, we keep funding it — and keep tuning the plant — until you’re back at the promised savings

The make-good is measured on projected versus verified savings — not the size of your investment. Guarantee terms apply post investment-grade engagement and are defined per project scope.

Assurance-ready emissions

An inventory that holds up to scrutiny.

Bankable produces an audit-grade, calibrated emissions inventory — ready for third-party assurance and regulatory submission — with ongoing measurement & verification so each year's report stays defensible as you reduce. Your carbon numbers become as bankable as your savings.

  • Assurance-ready inventory — calibrated data, ready for third-party verification and regulatory submission.
  • Verified reductions — carbon cuts proven from live data to IPMVP, alongside your guaranteed savings.
  • Annual re-reporting — each year's footprint tracked and re-stated as measures land.

Submission- and assurance-ready for UAE Federal Decree-Law No. 11 of 2024 reporting — and re-verified every year. It sits on top of the guaranteed savings that make the investment pay.

Carbon at Bankable

Assurance & submission ready.

A calibrated, third-party-defensible inventory — plus verified year-on-year reductions you can report with confidence.
