Result description
The EU HEROES project developed a financial modelling tool to help energy communities to assess the economic viability of PV projects. The tool was designed to help energy communities to develop solar projects that can be more easily integrated into energy networks, so may include battery storage or modelling of on-site use of energy.
The tool also produces a sensitivity analysis, enabling energy communities to easily see how future cost reductions or higher value Power Purchase Agreements might effect the viability of their project.
The tool is Microsoft Excel based and is downloadable from the www.euheroes.eu website, along with an instruction manual on how to use it and was developed by CREARA with input from the other project partners.
