Lite + Pro structure

The Lite version is ideal for users who want a simpler and faster model for solar project evaluation. It gives a practical framework for assumptions, forecasting, valuation, and summary review.

The Pro version is more detailed and is better suited for advanced users who need a deeper project finance structure, expanded schedules, more detailed assumptions, and stronger analytical outputs for investment or presentation purposes.

How to best work with this template

⚙️ Start by entering the main project assumptions such as:

plant capacity
energy generation assumptions
pricing inputs
capex
opex
financing terms
timing assumptions

Once the inputs are updated, the model automatically flows through the forecast, returns analysis, valuation outputs, and dashboard. This makes it easier to test multiple assumptions and quickly understand how project economics change under different scenarios.

Why do you need this Financial Model Template?

Solar projects involve many moving parts — technical assumptions, pricing, construction cost, operating expenses, and financing structure all affect returns. A well-built model helps bring these pieces together in one place.
