New Simplified Calculation Procedure for Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE) and Feed-in Tariff
New Simplified Calculation Procedure for Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE) and Feed-in Tariff
As part of the on-going technical preparations for the proposed mini-conference on the Mindanao Power Crisis this coming late August or early September 2010 and the main conference on “Energy & Climate Change”, the workshop coordinator, Mr. Marcial T. Ocampo, has prepared the simplified calculation procedure for calculating the levelized cost of energy (LCOE) and levelized selling price (tariff) for conventional and renewable energy resources.
The result of the simplified formulas using the US NREL formula for generation cost and the RP MTO formula for selling price were compared with the results from a full-blown project finance model and the variance between the two methods were minimal in most of the power generation technologies analyzed.
The input data came from the IEPR research summary of 2007 and from internationally published data on power generation technology by noted experts such as Paul Breeze and yours truly, Marcial Ocampo. More »

Special Promo (70% discount) for Project Finance Models Extended for the Whole February 2010
The author of this blog is indeed very happy for the response and interest on the project finance models that has been offered for sale in the internet thru either PayPal (using the DONATE button), or thru the DATA page for small-scale and large-scale project finance models. The discount is further increased from the previous 50% to 70% to keep the momentum going for this marvelous special promo.
Thus for February 2010, a 70% discount on large-scale project finance models will be offered to all our valued clients. The price of small-scale project finance models, however, remain to enable the author continue his pioneering work. More »
Project Finance Model for Hybrid Power Plant / Multi-fuel System with CDM
Project Finance Model for Hybrid Power Plant / Multi-fuel System with CDM
During implementation of a project feasibility study for a natural gas pipeline that will serve an anchor load 250-500 mw natural gas-fired combined cycle gas turbine (CCGT), it was felt that additional market for the excess Malampaya natural gas (300 mw surplus plus banked gas for sale) needs to be developed to improve the economics of the pipeline.
Doing a market, technical and feasibility study for this end-use conversion economics will thus entail developing a robust project finance model that is versatile enought to handle conversion of existing power generation and steam/process heat technologies (coal fired, bunker fired, diesel fired diesel electric generators, steam and process heat equipment, refrigeration) to natural gas firing.
The author, an energy technology and business development consultant, has prepared an Incremental Economics Conversion Model for comparing a base case (existing coal-fired or oil fired generation, process heat, refrigeration and air conditioning equipment) versus a more energy efficient, less polluting and cheaper to operate natural gas-fired equipment.
