Evaluating Renewable Projects

Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory has introduced ProForm, free software that assesses the environmental and financial impacts of renewable energy and energy efficiency projects such as wind turbine installations, residential lighting efficiency programs, and energy efficiency improvements in commercial buildings. The spreadsheet-based software calculates a project’s expected financial indicators and avoided emissions of carbon dioxide and air pollutants. Proform allows users to investigate how changes in basic assumptions affect a projectäs key parameters. Proform can be used to help developers prepare proposals to submit to potential investors, financiers or regulators. For more details, visit: http://eetd.lbl.gov/proform/.
