FINANCING

The solar & renewable project financing business plan

Wattvalio builds the financing business plan for your solar, photovoltaic and renewable projects: funding plan, bankable debt, DSCR/LLCR ratios, returns and valuation — a bankable financing package, recalculated in real time, from a single project to a consolidated portfolio.

What the financing business plan covers

Funding plan

CAPEX, construction drawdown, equity contribution and senior debt — the full project financing structure.

Bankable debt

Gearing or covenant-based sizing (DSCR/LLCR), sculpted debt, RCF, equity bridge loan, DSRF and fees.

Lender ratios

DSCR P50/P90, LLCR, gearing, cover ratios — the metrics a bank syndicate expects in a financing package.

Investor returns

Project and equity IRR, NPV, MOIC, LCOE and the break-even tariff — to decide on both debt and equity.

Valuation & exit

DCF and sum-of-the-parts (NAV / SOTP), farm-down at a multiple or IRR — entry and exit value.

Consolidated package

From a single project to a portfolio: holding, SPVs, dividend flows, corporate debt — an auditable, up-to-date financing package.

From funding plan to bankable package

A financing business plan is more than returns: it must prove the project is bankable. Wattvalio starts from the funding plan (CAPEX, equity, senior debt), sizes debt to a covenant (target DSCR / LLCR) rather than by hand, then rolls up to the ratios a bank syndicate expects in a project financing package.

Frequently asked questions

What is a financing business plan for a solar or renewable project?

It is the business plan that proves the project is bankable: it combines the funding plan (CAPEX, equity, debt), the debt schedule and the ratios lenders expect (DSCR, LLCR, gearing) with investor returns (IRR, NPV, MOIC) and valuation. It is the document handed to the bank and the investment committee.

Why Wattvalio instead of a spreadsheet for a financing business plan?

A financing business plan must be correct, current and auditable in due diligence. Spreadsheets become fragile once you size debt to a covenant, consolidate several projects or test scenarios. Wattvalio recalculates in real time, sizes debt by DSCR, keeps a full audit trail and secures access — with no formula to pray over.

Which financing ratios are computed?

DSCR (P50 and P90), LLCR, gearing, debt cover ratios, plus IRR, NPV, MOIC, LCOE and the break-even tariff — at a precision fit for a bank syndicate or investment committee.
