6PROJECT FINANCE
What is project finance?
Project finance is the financing of
long-term projects
Non-recourse or limited recourse
financial structure
Debt and equity used to finance the
project are paid back from the cash
flow generated by the project
![Page 9: PROJECT FINANCE FOR CONCENTRATING SOLAR POWER IN …sterg.sun.ac.za/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/Nedbank-presentation-I… · Project finance and concentrating solar power Doing business](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022042212/5eb5f60f3215891fd37c59a3/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
7PROJECT FINANCE
Why use project finance?
Typically large-scale infrastructure,
mining and energy projects, which
are very capital intensive
Project finance allows for the
creation of a special purpose vehicle
(SPV), which removes the project
from balance sheet of the owners

CSP and Project Finance
Concentrating solar power is very
well suited to the typical project
finance model
South African environment provides
high solar resource, government
guarantees, government support
