Building on the foundational concepts introduced in Part 1, this session brings project finance to life through hands-on analysis of real-world renewable energy projects. In this interactive webinar, we’ll dive into live spreadsheet models to explore how financial principles are applied in practice—from projecting cash flows and assessing risk to evaluating key metrics like IRR and DSCR. You’ll gain practical experience in structuring spreadsheets, stress-testing assumptions, and understanding the financial viability of a project from an investor’s perspective. Whether you're refining your skills or applying them for the first time, Part 2 will equip you to confidently navigate the numbers behind the transition to sustainable energy.
