DOCUMENT DESCRIPTION
Solar Power Project Financial Model – New Version Update:
The Solar Project Finance Model now includes a Tax Benefit Section (Investment Tax Credit or Cash Payment) in case the Project is eligible to take advantage of Federal Incentives.
Renewable energy is a key a part in addressing the climate crisis while also generating enough electricity to meeting increasing demand.
A photovoltaic power station, also known as a solar park, solar farm, or solar power plant, is a large-scale grid-connected photovoltaic power system (PV system) designed for the supply of merchant power. They are differentiated from most building-mounted and other decentralized solar power because they supply power at the utility level, rather than to a local user or users.
Solar power generation projects are seeing increased investments as states provide incentives for regional and local power generation capacity. A well-chosen financial model for Solar Power Plant project lays the foundation for the success of the energy project, guaranteeing adequate funding on favorable terms.
This Solar Project Financial Model provides forecast and profitability analysis of a development and operating scenario for a Solar (PV) Power Plant.
The main purpose of the Solar PV financial model is to enable users to get a solid understanding of the financial feasibility of a Solar Power Plant project and to evaluate the return to investors.
The Solar Project financial model includes all necessary data to calculate development and construction costs, energy production, revenue and operating expenses, financing through Debt & Equity, and project return metrics (IRR, NPV, MOIC, Payback, etc.)

"I have used Flevy services for a number of years and have never, ever been disappointed. As a matter of fact, David and his team continue, time after time, to impress me with their willingness to assist and in the real sense of the word. I have concluded in fact that it is not at all just a repository of documents/resources but, in the way that David and his team manage the firm, it is like dealing with consultants always ready to assist, advise and direct you to what you really need, and they always get it right.
I am an international hospitality accomplished senior executive who has worked and lived during the past 35 years in 23 countries in 5 continents and I can humbly say that I know what customer service is, trust me. Aside from the great and professional service that Flevy's team provide, their wide variety of material is of utmost great quality, professionally put together and most current. Well done Flevy, keep up the great work and I look forward to continue working with you in the future and to recommend you to a variety of colleagues around the world." – Roberto Pelliccia, Senior Executive in International Hospitality
