Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) to Power Project
Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) to Power Project
This is a power point presentation with a project finance model for calculating feed-in tariff (FiT).
The FiT is a renewable energy charge paid to renewable energy (RE) developers for providing power to the grid. It is paid for by the Transco operator who collects a renewable energy charge (REC) from all consumers of electricity in the country. By being spread out to all consumers, the burden of a higher FiT compared to the average grid rate is shared equally by all citizens and consumers alike since they will benefit from the positive impact of RE on global warming and climate change issues.
Feed-in Tariff Calculator – from simple RP MTO formula to project finance model
Feed-in Tariff Calculator – from simple RP MTO formula to project finance model
Yes, you are right. A feed-in tariff calculator using the modified US NREL formula for levelized cost of energy (LCOE) or levelized cost of electrity is available from you Energy Technology Expert – Marcial Ocampo. (Please refer to my previous articles on simplified formula for LCOE.)
In addition, we prepared a more sophisticated project finance model to calculate the feed-in tariff using the discounted cash flow internal rate of return method (DCF IRR). More »
Feed-in Tariff Models for Renewable Energy – biomass, cogen, mini-hydro, wind, solar and ocean thermal (OTEC)
Feed-in Tariff Models for Renewable Energy – biomass, cogen, mini-hydro, wind, solar and ocean thermal (OTEC)
Renewable energy feed-in tariffs for biomass, biomass cogen, mini-hydro or run-of-river hydro, wind, solar PV and ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC) have been calculated using a project finance model prepared for the National Renewable Energy Board (NREB) by Marcial Ocampo – your favorite energy technology expert.
Using standard assumptions of supplier FOB, the all-in capital cost is calculated. The summary sheet of the model then summarizes the assumptions and results.

New Summary Report Format for Project Finance Model for Feed-in Tariff
New Summary Report Format for Project Finance Model for Feed-in Tariff
A new and improved summary report format for the state-of-the-art project finance model has been developed and ready for implementation in all small scale, large scale and renewable energy project finance models.
Please refer to the sample format below and the author would appreciate receiving your valuable feedback.
Two formats are available: one for renewable energy projects without fuel requirement (mini-hydro, wind, solar) and those with fuels (biomass, cogen and other fossil-fired power plants such as diesel, coal, oil and natural gas).
This is to enable presentation of the plant heat rate and conversion efficiency from fuel energy to electrical energy as well as lube oil consumption rate.

Feed-in tariff is a regulatory mechanism developed to encourage the development and growth of Renewable Energy by encouraging RE power generation technologies such as biomass energy, mini-hydro, wind, solar and ocean energy.
It is a fixed tariff calculated using the discounted cash flow internal rate of return (DCF IRR) which compares the equity portion (usually 30%) of the all-in project cost (land, equipment, project development, working capital, interest during construction) to the expected net cash flow.
It is usually a fixed tariff for a minimum period of 15 years that allows the RE developer to recover the cost of capital (equity and debt), allowable generation cost, and provide reasonable profit at the minimum equity returns needed by investors.
What are you waiting for. Email me now and be the among the lucky first 20 viewers to receive the demo copy.
