We combine our strengths in system design and life cycle costing to offer financial modeling of a proposed solar power system.

The viability of a power system is not just a simple matrix of performance vs. cost but involves other ratios such as:

• Future electricity demand & prices
• Cost effectiveness of combining renewable energy sources
• Price comparison of different technologies

...just to name a few.

The task to model & forecast the performance of a system means that we can draw from our extensive project experience and use inter-disciplinary variables.

What sounds like marketing gobbledigock can be put into a real life scenario. The design for a remote (off-grid) Eco Resort for example would require a broad modeling base. There are a number of technical and financial relationships flowing into such a task, e.g.

• Modeling of various power sources for their financial viability
• Determining power storage options versus integrating sophisticated controls for diesel gensets
• Matching seasonal occupancy as well as occupancy behaviour with power supply as well its financial impact on the project
  

All in all we believe that financial modeling to us is more a trade skill where we can bring in our experience and reduce the uncertainty of unknown variables in a project.
