Even with Ex-Im Bank support, lenders need: Strong off-take contracts Technical comfort that project will be fully funded,

constructed on time, and operated efficiently Reliable / creditworthy parties: sponsors,

constructors, operator, and output purchasers Appropriate risk-sharing among project parties
