Risk is defined as an uncertain event or condition that, if it occurs has a positive or negative effect on a project's objectives. In every project the Risk Management Process (RPM) is essential to keep control, reduce cost, and using resources as efficient as possible. An important task for the project management is to try to mitigate the negative effects and benefit from the positive outcomes. RPM consists of 5 steps that are used throughout the project life cycle.

Risk treatment can be defined as the process of selecting and implementing measures to modify risk. When analyzing the risks and measures to modify them, every risk should be measured and considered based on a cost-benefit analysis. The cost-benefit analysis is done during the first steps of the RPM. If this analysis is done thoroughly and every direct or indirect costs whether substantial or theoretical, and estimated either monetary or other terms, the risk treatment will be done better and more efficiently. | Risk treatment can be defined as the process of selecting and implementing measures to modify risk.

***NOT FINISHED, THIS IS ONLY TO PRESENT THE GENERAL IDEA*** Risk treatment is the process of selecting and implementing measures to modify risk. This article will describe risk treatment in the energy sector and analyze the benefits and challenges that it may present. The risk treatment measure includes retaining risk, avoiding risk as well as optimizing risk. Risk management is an important and crucial part of project, program and portfolio management. The energy sector is in huge among of changes now, and several companies push for sustainable energy. This will include a lot of risks, and how they manage these risks could be of a great importance for the feasibility of the green transition.

Risk Treatment in Risk Management Process
Risk is defined as an uncertain event or condition that, if it occurs has a positive or negative effect on a project's objectives. In every project the Risk Management Process (RPM) is essential to keep control, reduce cost, and using resources as efficient as possible. An important task for the project management is to try to mitigate the negative effects and benefit from the positive outcomes. RPM consists of 5 steps that are used throughout the project life cycle. The 5 steps are as follows: [1] [2]
- Step 1 - Establish context
- Step 2 - Identify risks
- Step 3 - Analyse risks
- Step 4 - Evaluate risks
- Step 5 - Treat risks
Risks and risk management will vary a lot in projects due to every project being unique. Both risks and projects varies a lot in importance and threat throughout the project life cycle. Therefore, standardization of risk treatment is almost impossible. This article will mainly focus on the treatment of risks, and highlight some of the characteristics that renewable energy developers might face in renewable energy projects. Even though risks vary form project to project, the process of identifying, assessing, and controlling risks is standard for almost every project.Risk treatment is the final step in risk management, and therefore a vital step for the project manager in order to efficiently handle risks that are identified.

Introduction to Risk Treatment
Risk treatment can be defined as the process of selecting and implementing measures to modify risk. When analyzing the risks and measures to modify them, every risk should be measured and considered based on a cost-benefit analysis. The cost-benefit analysis is done during the first steps of the RPM. If this analysis is done thoroughly and every direct or indirect costs whether substantial or theoretical, and estimated either monetary or other terms, the risk treatment will be done better and more efficiently.
