Overview
It covers the most important economic aspects of renewable energy project planning and describes how the most common public policy support mechanisms work. The programme also looks into how banks view the risks related to renewable energy projects, and examines the parameters they use to assess any new project’s bankability in order to decide whether they will get on board and finance it. To this end, the programme includes a checklist for project developers to ensure that potential partner banks receive all the data they require in the way they require it.
After completing this programme, you will be able to:
- calculate the relevant economic parameters of a renewable energy project;
- decide which support mechanisms are applicable;
- prepare the data required for a bankability assessment; and
- define the necessary steps from planning to O&M for a large-scale PV grid-connected system.
Upon successful finalisation of the training, you will receive a RENAC Certificate.
