Technical due diligence
for wind acquisitions.
You’re under LOI. The exclusivity window is ticking. Ridgeline runs structured technical assessment across every turbine in the deal — so you close with confidence, not spreadsheets.
Trusted by PE firms and operators managing 2,000+ MW of wind capacity.
Every component scored. Every risk quantified.
Ridgeline replaces spreadsheets with a structured database that tracks component condition, risk scores, and replacement reserves across your entire portfolio.
DD in weeks, not months
Your exclusivity window is 30–60 days. We run structured technical assessment across every turbine in the deal — component history, risk scoring, O&M projections — and deliver a defensible report before your LOI expires.
- Component-level risk scoring with severity badges
- Portfolio-wide heat map by risk category
- Annual reserve calculations per site
Every component, accounted for
We track 14 component types per turbine — gearboxes, generators, blades, main bearings — with full replacement history, service agreements, and risk scores. You get a complete technical picture of the assets you’re acquiring.
- Turbine-level detail with OEM, model, and commission dates
- Work order history and service agreements
- SCADA, historian, and connectivity metadata
Know the real cost of ownership
We build 20-year O&M projections with component-level cost modeling so you can underwrite with confidence. No surprises after close.
- NPV-based 20-year O&M budget projections
- Category-level cost breakdown: scheduled, corrective, major component
- Export to Excel for your financial models
Ridgeline is now a due diligence engine
API layer, batch screening, partner workspaces. DD at scale.

How a DD Sprint works
Scope the Deal
Share your target portfolio — site list, turbine count, and available documentation. We define the DD scope and timeline around your exclusivity window.
We Run the Assessment
Ridgeline ingests asset data, scores risk across every component, flags maintenance gaps, and builds O&M cost projections — all in a structured database, not a spreadsheet.
Close with Confidence
Get a defensible technical assessment with component-level findings, risk-adjusted cost models, and clear go/no-go recommendations. Post-close, the data transitions directly into your operations platform.
Built for PE deal teams
and operating partners.
If you’re acquiring wind assets and need technical answers before close, Ridgeline is built for you. We work with private equity firms, infrastructure funds, and independent power producers who can’t afford to get DD wrong on a $50M+ transaction.
Common questions
“We already have engineers who do this.”
Your engineers know the assets. We bring the structured process: component-level tracking across every turbine, automated risk scoring, and 20-year O&M projections. We make your team faster, not redundant.
“Can you turn this around in two weeks?”
Yes. Our DD Sprint is designed around LOI exclusivity windows. Typical turnaround is 2–4 weeks depending on portfolio size and data availability. We’ve delivered in as little as 48 hours.
“What happens to the data after close?”
Everything transitions into ongoing operations. The same structured database that powered your DD becomes your asset management system — component tracking, maintenance planning, and cost forecasting from day one of ownership.
