I was stuck before I even opened Excel, and this template gave me a working starting point fast. It saved me a full day of setup and made the first draft feel manageable.
Easy Enough To Follow
Derek Hall, TX
I’m not deep into financial modeling, so the built-in structure was a big help. I filled in the inputs without getting lost, and had a clean forecast ready for a meeting the same afternoon.
Clear Cash Flow View
Priya Desai, NJ
Seeing the monthly cash flow laid out made it much easier to spot shortfalls before they became a problem. That clarity helped me adjust assumptions and plan runway with less guesswork.
MODEL OVERVIEW
What Is the Sun Energy Financial Model?
This is an editable five-year workbook that converts streaming volumes, unit prices, seasonality, costs and assumptions of financing into financial forecasts and management reports.
Use of the model to build forecasts of solar energy based on the driver from separate revenue streams, operational assumptions, financing choices and planned investments.
The input data to be edited is the basis for the calculation of the workbooks, financial statements, scenario analysis and management opinions, so that changes can be reviewed through related results.
Built for driver-based planningChange of business assumptions instead of replacing the model with total top-down revenues.
INCOME ENGINE FROM SOLIDARY ENERGY
How Does the Solar Energy Model Calculate Revenue?
The revenue shall be calculated independently for each stream included as the measurable volume multiplied by its matching unit price and seasonality and ancillary income shall apply thereafter.
01
Set Streams
Name of each revenue stream and enter its independently measured units or transactions.
02
Set Prices
Enter the matching unit price independently for each on-line revenue stream.
03
Calculate Sales
Multiply the measurable size of each stream by its matching price per unit.
04
Use Time
Income from annual income streams within the monthly seasonality once and add additional revenue.
05
Total Revenue
Total of all stream receipts with separate auxiliary income entered therein.
FORM OF CORRECTIONRevenue = stream sales total + ancillary income
01 / REVENUE
Which Inputs Drive Solar Energy Revenue?
The revenue card allows you to name streams, set the time of startup, enter units and prices of the stream and distribute annual activities with monthly seasonality.
REVENUE
The revenue view shows the configuration of the stream, units, prices, seasonality and annual total revenue.
02 / COGS & OPEX
How to Structure Operational Costs?
The COGS & OPEX card separates direct costs, variable costs and fixed operating costs, so that the cost assumptions can translate into monthly forecasts.
COGS & OPEX
View COGS & OPEX separates direct, variable and fixed assumptions of operating costs.
03 / SCENARIOS
What Can You Compare in Scenarios?
The Scenarios compared low, base and high cases with respect to revenues, gross margin, premium margins and EBITDA as compared to the forecast.
SCENARIOS
The scenarios present Low, Base and High Charts in key financial resources.

FIT OF PRODUCTS
Is the Sun Energy Financial Model Suitable for You?
It is consistent with buyers whose revenues are in line with independent volumes and stream prices; significant differences in revenue logic or reporting structures may require non-standard modelling.
MODEL BY MADA READY
Good Example
You model multiple revenue streams from independently input volumes and unit prices.
To shape annual revenue, you need to start time and monthly seasonality.
You want editable cost, wages, CAPEX, financing and ownership assumptions in one workbook.
You want Low, Base and High with related financial and management reports.
CUSTOMS STRUCTURE
Consider Custom Pattern
Your revenue depends on a different formula than the volume stream multiplied by the unit price.
You need operational schedules that are not represented by the model input structure.
You require reporting of layouts or calculations outside the financial results of the workbook.
You need a model tailored to processes specific to the organization, time, or logic of financing.
The template is the starting point of planning, not a guarantee of performance.
