Case Study: Sark7 optimises sustainable energy project viability with Palisade DecisionTools Suite

Optimising the Business Case for Sustainable Energy Projects: Sark7 Provides Due Diligence for Prospective Investors Using the DecisionTools Suite

Sark7 is an international consultancy focused on integrated analysis for sustainable energy projects, helping investors and project teams separate realistic opportunities from “green” hype. The company needed a rigorous way to assess the financial viability and risk profile of projects like biofuel plants, using Palisade’s DecisionTools Suite, including @RISK, PrecisionTree, and Evolver.

Palisade’s software was used to model project NPV, compare strategic scenarios, and optimize plant configurations by integrating capital, operating, financing, and market uncertainties into a single risk simulation. The result was a more credible, investor-ready business case that highlighted profitability conditions, key sensitivities, and risk-balanced returns, helping Sark7 present sustainable energy projects with clearer due diligence and a stronger chance of securing funding.
