Financial Modelling and Investment Collateral for a Utility-Scale Renewable Energy Project.

The client

A European project development team preparing to raise capital for a utility-scale renewable energy asset, needing end-to-end support on financial modelling and investment presentation.

The challenge

• No existing financial model to evaluate project viability
• Limited internal bandwidth for in-depth scenario testing
• Need for detailed CAPEX and OPEX assumptions, cash-flow forecasting and tax structuring
• No investor-grade materials to articulate the investment case

Our approach

1. 01

   Input and assumption framework

   • Built dynamic input sheets covering capital costs, O&M, depreciation, inflation and tax
   • Benchmarked pricing, yields and regulatory factors against the industry
   • Structured scenario toggles to model sensitivity across generation cases
2. 02

   Financial modelling and structuring

   • Prepared full financial statements
   • Incorporated debt structuring, loan repayments and funding-eligibility compliance
3. 03

   Sensitivity and risk case analysis

   • Delivered multi-case scenarios to test equity IRR, NPV and payback sensitivity
   • Created return visualisations and waterfall analyses for investors
4. 04

   Presentation and investor collateral

   • Developed concise, data-rich slides on key metrics and financial insights
   • Presented the commercial model, return potential and viability for investors and lenders
   • Packaged model outputs into an investor-grade pitch

Outcome

• A fully auditable model with scenario flexibility
• Faster investor engagement, with technical inputs turned into strategic outputs
• Much shorter turnaround on financial and risk scenario iterations
