Tools

Municipal Impact

Aggregate multiple community energy projects and project the combined impact on employment, emissions, savings and investment for the entire municipality.

Portfolio parameters

Define how many projects, of what size and how many households are served, and observe the cumulative impact.

Municipal Impact

Investment attracted (COP)
Total households served

This dashboard does not calculate any IRR, neither project nor investor: it aggregates physical volume, savings and investment, not returns. For returns use the Solar Simulator, and keep in mind that the IRR shown there is the project IRR — the return on the community's energy savings — and not the institutional investor IRR, which the financial model places at 8-12%. The employment ratios (3 direct jobs per project plus 1 additional, and an indirect multiplier of 2.5) are inherited from the previous version of this tool and have no documented source in the project corpus: treat them as a working assumption, not a researched figure. The investment attracted is gross: it does not deduct FENOGE co-financing or Ley 1715 incentives. Indicative figures; they do not constitute an offer or investment advice.

Cumulative community savings (5 years)

Stacked bars in millions of COP. The total height of each bar is the cumulative community savings through that year; the top segment is the savings for that year. Assumptions: the municipal model holds the tariff constant and does not model panel degradation or O&M costs — unlike the Solar Simulator, which does model them. That is why this curve is flatter and more optimistic than an individual project's cash flow. It is a ceiling, not a financial projection.

Portfolio composition

Cumulative community savings at 5 years vs. gross investment attracted, in millions of COP. Investment is shown as a single outlay in year 0; neither FENOGE co-financing nor tax incentives are deducted here.

What this dashboard is and is not

It is a sizing tool for municipal policy conversations: how much capacity, how much generation, how much CO2 and how much savings does a portfolio of N projects move. It is not a financial model: it does not discount cash flows, does not calculate returns and does not consider the capital structure. The employment figures have no source and are labeled as such above.

A sizing tool, not a financial model

This dashboard aggregates physical volume, savings and investment for a portfolio of N projects: how much capacity, how much generation, how much CO2 and how much savings a municipality moves. It does not discount cash flows or calculate returns, and the employment ratios have no documented source — they are labeled as a working assumption.
