From portfolio options to renewable assets

This recording builds on our first portfolio webinar, Modelling portfolios: what are the options and how to choose between them, and applies those ideas to renewable energy assets.

It covers how to model portfolios that combine utility-scale projects with smaller assets such as rooftop solar and commercial and industrial (C&I) projects. It also covers projects at different stages, from development and construction to blue-sky opportunities.

What you will learn

  • The options available when building an asset portfolio model
  • How to balance accuracy and usability in a portfolio model to suit your situation
  • Examples of portfolio modelling approaches in practice
  • How to reflect development stages in the exit valuation
