说明

Project Finance Modeling for Renewable Energy course will give you the skills to develop and analyze financial models for wind and solar projects. The course covers essential topics including debt sizing and funding, wind and solar project operations, and investment returns, and will provide you with a robust financial modeling skillset for analysis of renewable projects in the most sophisticated environments.



In an online environment you will go from a blank Excel workbook to a financial model suitable for investment analysis, debt structuring and operational scenario evaluation. This course will provide step-by-step instructions on how to build financial model suitable for analyzing wind and solar projects.







What this course is about?



Project finance models for renewable energy are used to assess the risk-reward of lending to and investing in renewable project (wind and solar). The project's debt capacity, investment returns and financial feasibility depend on expected future cash flows generated by the renewable energy project itself and a financial model is built to analyze this.







In the Project Finance Modeling for Renewable Energy course we will model complex wind and solar project finance transactions from scratch in excel.
