Certified Renewable Energy Project Developer: PV-Diesel Hybrid Systems
This online programme provides a detailed introduction of what PV-diesel systems are, what they are for, and how they are planned and implemented.
It covers the most important economic aspects of renewable energy project planning and describes how the most common public policy support mechanisms work. The programme also looks into how banks view the risks related to renewable energy projects, and examines the parameters they use to assess any new project’s bankability in order to decide whether they will get on board and finance it. To this end, the programme includes a checklist for project developers to ensure that potential partner banks receive all the data they require in the way they require it.
