Escrow services for renewable energy projects

Minimize risks. Ensure continuity. Protect critical data.

As a trusted escrow partner, DNV supports developers, operators, and suppliers in the renewable energy sector by safeguarding intellectual property and ensuring uninterrupted access to project-critical documentation. Our independent and secure escrow services help de-risk collaboration with third-party providers and consultants—ensuring long-term access to the data you rely on.

Why escrow matters in renewable energy

Modern renewable energy projects increasingly depend on proprietary software, specialized engineering, and third-party systems. Whether you’re deploying wind, solar, battery storage, or hydrogen projects, the availability of up-to-date technical documentation and source files is essential to ensuring operational continuity, maintenance, and future scalability.

If a project partner fails, exits the market, or changes ownership, access to essential files can be lost—disrupting operations and increasing compliance risks. DNV acts as a neutral and internationally recognized third-party escrow agent, mitigating these risks by holding and verifying business-critical documents on behalf of all contractual parties.
