New Construction Methodology - A Strategic Approach of Financial and Market Feasibility for Geothermal Cogeneration Plant

Abstract:

Abstract -While constructing the geothermal cogeneration plant the success of the projects depends upon its financial and market feasibility. A new optimization method is used to estimate financing requirements of investment projects will be presented, as well as a new method to predict the optimal year to sell the investment. A case study is used to illustrate the use of a model to assess the financial feasibility of a geothermal cogeneration plant. The conclusion is that Net Present value , Internal rate of Return and Modified Internal rate of Return should be used to assess financial feasibility of investment projects. In addition to calculating the financial feasibility criteria, assessment models should allow the user to perform sensitivity analysis, scenario analysis, and simulation to analyze risk associated with the investment project. Risk probability matrix is used to obtain the risk priority , which then continued with financial analysis for the feasibility study and also sensitivity analysis. The study shows that the parameter investment value will be increased when treatment is done on risk. Keywords: Financial and market feasibility, Geo thermal cogeneration plant, Environmental Aspects, Sensitivity analysis.
