Solar plant / renewables infrastructure PE model
A little new to this type of modeling so excuse me if anything sounds off, as I am used to the traditional corporate modeling.
If you were to model the acquisition of a solar / renewables power plant and look at your IRR, how would you sensitize?
Some of the things I think that may be used:
-MW capacity of plant -Capacity factor - Discount / premium to this capacity factor based on seasonality -Operations and Maintenance expenses - Any govt rebates - power output depending on type of solar (PV vs. CSP) -tax equity implications
Would think that the "value" is the NPV of all the cash flows from the annual power output over life of PPA
Would think that debt is not paid down ie. in a traditional corporate LBO, as infrastructure fund would be most focused on the recurring cash flows from the power generation.
If anyone has any color on how you would create a model for these plants and what to sensitize would be very helpful, thanks.
