8 7 PV Projects have the advantage to be comparable to financial products as they are straight forward on a technological perspective Main characteristics of PV projects Reliable |Technology is simple and passive |Maintenance is light |Module life time 25 years Predictable |Sunlight is stable through the years |Energy yield are predictable and Regular |Output directly linked to quality of modules / inverters |O&M costs are stable Safe |Returns are known well in advance |Economical reality does not vary too much from simulations

9 8 Through the eyes of Finance a project is Risk Management Overview of project development framework ENVIRONMENT “Framework” TECHNOLOGY “Know-how” PLAYERS “human factor” PROJECT FINANCE |Social Need |Political framework |Geological conditions |Yield check |Technical feasibility |Technical/site risks |Promoters |Technology suppliers |Investors |Banks Land + Rights Project development |Mitigate the risks of a project by |Proper project documentation |Scenario Analysis |EPC Guarantees

10 9 Each partner in a project has a different goal.. EPC Margin (10 to 15%) Loan Interests (6 to 10%) Dividends (15%) Sweat equity/ Development Margin (15%) Annual returns One shot profits EACH ACTOR HAS A DIFFERENT EXIT STRATEGY IN MIND Project stakeholders and their goals Project Project Promoter Equity Investor Money lender EPC contractor

11 10 Typical Finance Cycle of commercial PV Systems Exit by trade sale to long term equity investors with lower IRR expectations (8 to 10%) : |Utilities |Pension funds Financial close Preferred exit option Short term equity investors with Equity IRR expectations around 14% : |Development banks (label+equity) |Hedge/Innovation funds (equity) |Industrial partners (exit strategy offer) Joint Venture development (SSA, SHA) Project construction Exit by sector IPO Equity Partner search Promoters + Initial Investors Cash bring as Equity Injection into New/future project pipeline x

14 13 Overall private sector investments have the opportunity to bring efficiency and competition to the Off-Grid/ Hybrid Sector Key points of concern for private investors Some of the concerns can be addressed by the Government while education play a key role and can be driven by the private sector A No sovereign guarantees to counter bankability issue B Often remote access raises questions on O&M C Difficulties to pool projects in order to attract equity D Smaller systems difficult to debt-finance E Wider span in quality/ reliability compared to PV PP F Lack of education on RE in Off-grid markets
