Project Finance for Renewables: how lenders size debt (PowerPoint toolkit, 20 slides)

20-slide PowerPoint on renewable project finance: cash flow waterfall, DSCR sculpting, P50 and P90, tolling and merchant, lender and sponsor metrics, templates.

Description
A 20-slide PowerPoint toolkit that explains how non-recourse debt is sized for solar, onshore wind and battery storage projects, built from the Bindler project finance models and written for the people who sit on either side of the term sheet.

- Part 1, the structure: the cash flow waterfall from generation to equity, DSCR sculpting and the gearing cap explained step by step, and a worked solar example with example values.

- Part 2, the technologies: what changes in the CFADS line for solar (degradation, PPA then merchant), onshore wind (P50 and P90 energy cases and the lender case switch) and battery storage (tolling then merchant, capacity fade, augmentation), with what to watch on each.

- Part 3, the numbers: lender metrics (DSCR, LLCR, gearing, tenor and tail, the sizing case) and sponsor metrics (project and equity IRR, NPV, payback, stressed DSCR), and the design choices that keep a model honest.

- Part 4, templates: the full input list, the four-step sizing walk-through, a sensitivity grid and a term sheet checklist.

Editable 16:9 PowerPoint. All figures are example values from the models' default inputs, not market data; not investment or financing advice. Pairs with the Bindler Renewable Energy Project Finance Set (solar, wind and BESS models in Excel).

Who it is for: developers preparing for a lender process, analysts joining an infrastructure or renewables team, advisers and lenders who need a shared vocabulary with sponsors, and students learning project finance from a working model.

You need to explain or learn project finance mechanics for solar, wind or storage in a form a team can present.

You need a bank's internal credit policy or current market pricing; the deck explains mechanics with example values.
