Assessment draft

Project setup

Tell us about the opportunity

This identifies the project in your AFUR workspace.

Project name Country Project category

Energy profile

Define current electricity use

Use recent bills or audited consumption where available.

Monthly electricity use (kWh)Current tariff (USD/kWh)

Good input

For variable loads, use a representative 12-month average and retain the source bills for later due diligence.

Solar design

Set preliminary PV assumptions

These inputs produce the indicative system size and generation.

Peak sun hours/dayTarget solar coverage (%)Installed solar cost (USD/kWp)Annual O&M (% of CAPEX)Annual degradation (%)

Battery storage

Screen resilience requirements

Skip storage for a solar-only assessment.

Solar PV onlyNo battery included in CAPEXSolar PV + batterySize storage for critical-load backup

Backup duration (hours)Critical load to support (%)Installed battery cost (USD/kWh)

Detailed design requires interval load data, surge loads and an outage profile.

Financial assumptions

Set the investment horizon

These assumptions drive payback and discounted cash flow.

Tariff escalation (%)Analysis period (years)Discount rate (%)

Grid readiness

Check evidence for formal engagement

The result identifies actions before utility and regulatory review.

Planned operating modeNetwork utility/operator identified?Site ownership or use rights documented?Interval load data available?Single-line diagram available?Metering and protection concept prepared?Environmental and social screening started?

Country-specific licensing thresholds, grid codes and procedures must be confirmed with the relevant authority.

Review
