In clean energy, who you buy from can trigger a forced-labor hold at the border and void the tax credits the project depends on. Compliable.ai screens supplier ownership and sourcing against both regimes at once, and re-screens as entity lists and thresholds change.
In power and renewables, supplier risk lands in two places at once: a forced-labor detention at the border, and the loss of clean-energy tax credits based on a supplier's ownership and control. The same vendor decision drives both.
Polysilicon and battery inputs carry forced-labor risk several tiers down, and the entity list keeps growing.
New rules tie tax-credit eligibility to foreign ownership and control thresholds. A stake short of control can still void a credit.
Border clearance and credit substantiation both require documentation you can produce on demand.
Who is this supplier and who controls it, what is the risk to border clearance and to the credit, and can you defend the decision to customs and to the tax authority. Compliable.ai answers all three on one platform, and every part is yours to set: the documents you require, the checks you run, the steps you keep or cut, and what happens at each event. Below is the default flow for a power or renewables supplier. Reshape it to your process.
Compliable.ai validates the critical documents every counterparty shares out of the box: articles of formation and incorporation, standard bank documents, and tax forms. The documents and checks specific to your suppliers you give us as examples, and we turn them into validation and workflow with you, not in an engineering backlog. For the parts unique to your desk, we partner and refine against your real cases.
Every supplier file runs through the same set of AI capabilities. Here is what that looks like pointed at a power or renewables supplier.
Reads supplier certifications, bills of materials, and attestations in seconds, extracts the key data, and flags a bad or expired document on upload.
Reconciles the file. If a sourcing claim does not line up with the shipping records, or an attestation contradicts the bill of materials, it surfaces immediately.
Traces ownership through GLEIF and tests the covered-nation ownership and control thresholds that decide tax-credit eligibility.
Runs multi-provider screening, including the forced-labor entity list, then scores false-positive probability so a common name does not stall an approval.
Matches the supplier across open data for corporate structure, leaked-document exposure, and adverse media, and links what belongs together.
Writes the supplier file into a defensible record for both customs admissibility and credit substantiation.
Not every supplier earns the same review. Compliable.ai scores each vendor and tiers the work, so a domestic low-risk supplier clears quickly and a covered-nation or threshold-crossing supplier gets the deeper look, automatically, by rule.
A domestic or low-risk supplier with simple ownership. Identity, sanctions, and ownership screening at baseline depth.
Covered-nation exposure or layered ownership. Adds enhanced ownership and control analysis and adverse-media review.
Entity-list adjacency, threshold-crossing ownership, or high forced-labor-risk inputs. Full enhanced due diligence (EDD) and a complete record.
Agentic Authority is not one AI making calls. It is specialized agents, each doing one job, collaborating through a controlled workflow, here configured for a power or renewables supplier.
Reads and validates every supplier document as it uploads, and reconciles the file. A sourcing claim that does not match the shipping records, or a missing attestation, surfaces the moment the file lands.
Runs sanctions, watchlist, and forced-labor entity-list screening on the supplier and its owners in one pass, tests ownership against the covered-nation thresholds via GLEIF, then explains and scores each hit.
Applies your policy for border clearance and credit eligibility to the evidence, then recommends the call: approve, hold, or escalate, with the reasoning shown.
Writes the supplier onboarding into a defensible record for customs and the tax authority, with the audit trail attached.
Each completed onboarding turns into a compliance profile the supplier controls and can share. The next buyer that needs that supplier starts ahead, collecting only the delta instead of the whole file.
A supplier cleared today can appear on an entity list tomorrow, or cross a threshold as ownership shifts. Compliable.ai keeps watching, so a change becomes an alert, not a surprise at the border or in an audit.
Active suppliers and their owners are re-screened on your schedule and the moment the entity list or a sanctions list changes.
An entity-list addition or an ownership change that crosses a threshold triggers a fresh look automatically, on rules you set.
An annual review reuses the existing file. The supplier provides only what changed.
We will run one of your supplier types through the power and renewables template, from document upload to a defensible decision, in a live walkthrough.
