Renewable Energy Interview Questions

Hey guys,

Just trying to get a sense of how to prepare and what kind of questions I can expect for a renewable energy (wind and solar) M&A related interview,

My background is in valuation so I feel comfortable on the general valuation approaches and questions.

Friend of mine interviewed for a boutique specialising in energy. They asked standard questions but the energy related ones were to discuss a recent energy deal and to value a wind turbine/solar panel.
