Example of Project Profitability
Let’s take a 300 kW solar power plant.
Total construction cost: USD 155,000
Retail investors’ investment: USD 130,000
Management company co-investment: USD 25,000
Annual electricity generation: 330,000 kWh
Average selling price: ₴7.0 per kWh
Production cost: ₴1.5 per kWh
Annual revenue: 330,000 × ₴7.0 = ₴2,310,000
Annual costs: 330,000 × ₴1.5 = ₴495,000
Net project profit: ₴2,310,000 – ₴495,000 = ₴1,815,000 per year
After 20% management fee: ₴1,815,000 × 0.80 = ₴1,452,000
Converted to USD (₴43 per USD): ₴1,452,000 ÷ 43 ≈ USD 33,767
Investor’s investment: USD 130,000
Annual profit: USD 33,767
Annual ROI ≈ 26.0% in USD
Payback period ≈ 3.9 years
