Part 3 of 3, turning a single deterministic IRR into a full probability distribution of returns. A Markov-chain weather model, a kernel-density price model, and a thousand Monte Carlo runs through the project finance model, plus the uncomfortable truth about what really drives a solar plant's returns.

Part 2 of 3, to model a solar plant's risk you first have to measure the sky. Separating sunlight into a deterministic astronomical signal and pure weather randomness using pvlib, NASA satellite data, and the Clear-Sky Index.

Part 1 of 3, building a three-statement, cash-flow-waterfall project finance model for a solar plant in Python: sizing the debt to a DSCR, pricing the equity IRR, and stress-testing the returns against the one thing nobody controls, the sun.

Technical & financial analysis of solar PV plants
Financial models, P50/P90 sensitivities, and technical due diligence for utility-scale solar PV plants, plus O&M cost optimization across operating portfolios.
Since 2023 I have worked on renewable energy assets, from design to operation. At GRI I lowered the capital cost per wind tower; at STOWAI I build financial models of utility-scale solar PV plants, lead technical due diligence, and optimize O&M cost across operating portfolios. I'm now seeking a Project Finance role in energy and infrastructure.
