Life Without Orennia
Evaluating an RNG Portfolio
A private equity firm is evaluating a renewable natural gas (RNG) portfolio of landfill and dairy projects. The opportunity needs to be reviewed by the firm's investment committee before they can make a move.
Understanding the Potential
To get ready for their presentation to the investment committee, the team works to identity the total addressable market for RNG across the US.
Completing a High-level Analysis
It seems simple enough. Using public sources, they find the total headcount of dairy cows by state and the number of landfills.
Stalling Out in Deliberations
The investment committee digs in and asks some tough questions. Unfortunately, the team isn't able to answer as they don't have the right data. They can't be sure about how much of the potential supply is actually economically viable. After a lengthy deliberation, the investment committee still isn't confident. Now they've taken too long and the deal is preempted by another private equity firm.
