Business software developer Competitive Energy Insight, San Diego, Calif., has introduced a suite of Excel-based investment-analysis models for wind, solar, biomass, biofuels and all other forms of renewable energy. The latest, EconExpert-Partnerships and Leases, let users analyze and evaluate techniques to efficiently monetize investment and production tax credits, depreciation, and grants while tracking individual returns and capital accounts for multiple project stakeholders. These could include sponsor equity, private equity, tax equity, developer, leaser, lessee, lender, and every other participant in a transaction.
This auditable and customizable tool will work well with user written Excel models and other EconExpert Project Financial Models. Doing so provides capability that covers alternative allocations of profits, losses, tax benefits, distributions and risk allocation, and tracks 704(b) minimum gains, capital accounts, deficit restoration obligations, suspended losses, and individual investor returns.
