Model Your Renewable Energy Project Returns
We've launched a comprehensive Project Economics Calculator that lets you model the full financial picture of your clean energy investment — from EPC costs through 5-year cash flow projections.
What You Can Do
- 8 project types supported — Solar PV, Battery Storage, Wind, Geothermal, Fuel Cell, CHP, Offshore Wind, and combined Solar + Battery
- Full ITC configuration — Model your base ITC rate plus Domestic Content, Energy Community, and Low-Income Community bonus adders
- Section 6418 credit transfer modeling — See exactly how selling your ITC to a third-party buyer affects your equity requirement and returns
- 5-year cash flow analysis — Year-by-year projections including revenue escalation, operating expense inflation, debt service, and ITC recapture risk
- Key financial metrics — Simple payback period, 5-year IRR, NPV at your chosen discount rate
Built for Real Deals
The calculator includes PWA compliance warnings for projects over 1 MW, handles battery capacity separately from solar sizing, and models ITC recapture vesting across the full 5-year compliance period. Optional debt financing lets you see leveraged vs. unleveraged returns side by side.
