Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all Project Finance Modelers

To all my readers of my power generation technology and project finance modeling (deterministic or fixed inputs and probabilistic or randomly varying inputs using Monte Carlo Simulation), I wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

This November 1 till midnight of December 31, 2016, you can avail of great opportunities and huge discounts when you download my sample power generation technology briefs and project finance models.

Power Generation and Fuel Cycle Technologies - a mini-lecture series with power point presentation and excel project finance models

Your energy technology selection expert is beginning a lecture series on power generation and fuel cycle technologies. This will involve a discussion on the principles of the technology, its history, capital and operating costs, benefits and risks.

Objectives

1) To provide the participants a basic understanding of the following commercially available:

- fuel cycle technologies

- power generation technologies, and

- energy storage technologies

2) To know the basic principles, costs, environmental impact, risks and applicability of each of these technologies, and

3) To present the technology roadmap of each of these technologies to guide us in the near term (next 20 years – up to 2020) and in the long term (next 50 years – up to 2050)

The project finance models of the power generation technology selection expert are based on one model template; hence, the results are unique for the technology's capital and operating costs, fuel properties and costs, energy conversion efficiency or heat rate, and energy resource availability and reliability.

The financial models are denominated in Philippine Pesos (PhP 47.00 = USD). You can easily convert to your own local currency by changing the base and forward fixed exchange rate (e.g. XXX 100.00 = USD, USD 1.00 = USD) and do a global replacement of all PhP with XXX currency.
