Commercial Banks / Lenders

Project Finance Analysis

Robust debt sizing and cash flow analysis tailored specifically for the nuances of merchant and contracted energy storage projects. Commercial banks and institutional lenders require extreme confidence in a project's ability to service debt under severe downside scenarios. The OPTIMUS platform translates complex, sub-hourly dispatch simulations directly into bankable financial metrics. Lenders can automatically calculate the Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) and Loan Life Coverage Ratio (LLCR) under P90 and P99 revenue cases. The platform models complex capital stacks, including tax equity partnerships driven by the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), back-leverage, and strict debt sizing constraints. By demonstrating how the asset's dispatch strategy adapts to collapsing price spreads or extreme weather events, sponsors can secure lower margins and higher leverage.
