Description
Project Finance Model providing forecast and profitability analysis of a development and operating scenario for a Geothermal Energy Plant.The main purpose of the model is to enable users to get a solid understanding of the financial feasibility of a Geothermal project and evaluate the return to investors.
The model includes calculations of development costs (Exploration, Confirmation Drilling, Site Construction), Plant Capacity Production and Thermal Potential, Revenue and OpEx assumptions, Tax Incentives, financing through Debt & Equity, and project return metrics (IRR, NPV, MOIC, Payback, etc.)
The structure of the template follows Financial Modeling Best Practices principles and is fully customizable.
Model Structure
• Setup Assumptions
This section is used to input all the assumptions for the project.

– Levelized Cost of Energy
– Equity, Debt, Tax, CapEx & Depreciation Schedules
• Business Performance Dashboard
Presentation of Project results through sophisticated charts & graphs
• Investor Returns (Waterfall)
Investors Distribution Waterfall Model including a GP Catch-up provision.
• Project Executive Summary
Professional Executive Summary report containing all of the high-level relevant information for review and is designed to be easy to read, print, and save to pdf.
