Excellent Course
I learned a ton! Haydn was an excellent instructor, made a very dense and complicated topic very accessible and broke it down so understanding was easy. Clear to see he is very knowledgeable and passionate about the work.

Couldn’t speak more highly of my experience at Pivotal180’s Renewable Energy Project Finance Modeling course! Daniel Gross and Haydn Palliser have developed practical content and deliver it in an engaging, individualized manner. I look forward to applying the powerful and relevant skills I developed at the course to support my work. Abraham Wapner – Coalition of Green Capital
I took this course to improve my renewable energy project finance knowledge and capabilities as I look to move from the construction industry in to renewable energy finance and I found the course incredibly valuable. The course instructor was very knowledgeable and the lessons were very well run. The content in the virtual platform that is available outside of the lessons were a great resource to help me build my competencies in certain areas that I felt I needed to develop further. I would recommend this course to anyone looking to develop a solid foundation in renewable energy project finance modelling.

I feel this was incredibly helpful, and we have already run into several instances where we have been able to translate something from the course into our daily work. Jordyn and I both agreed that we would recommend this course for anyone new to our company as an analyst. It can be difficult to catch up when you work for a smaller company, and this course filled in A LOT of knowledge gaps we have had since day 1. Nathan Bailey Financial Analyst Urbangrid on Renewable Energy Project Finance Modeling (Live Stream) 3 Dec 2020!
Informative and easy to follow
I already have several years of experience in renewable energy modelling, but I still found that Pivotal180 training included several tips & tricks along the way (esp. regarding model set up and design) that I will incorporate into my own work. I also thought the lectures strike a good balance between the “why” we need to know about the underlying details of a project and “how” we translate that into a model; e.g. being able to set up and size a term loan correctly.

Great course for new & experienced TE modelers
Thanks Haydn and team for the great course. Even with several years of TE experience, I still found the lesson plan valuable.

Haydn was brilliant, and I don’t throw that out lightly.
I teach, do seminars, and SME for many clients and have pretty high expectations – not many people could have kept me positively engaged for 10 sessions. The material is exceptionally well organized to tie-in the “model building” with the “model thinking” which is challenging for the complexity of the material.
Vincent Divita on Renewable Energy Financial Modeling (Live Streaming May 2022)!
Excellent course
Complete breakdown of the financial model into great detail, with excellent lessons and examples. Even though the material can be quite dry, lessons were given in a very engaging and even fun way. Loved the occasional jokes, will definitely recommend!

Really appreciate the service Pivotal180 provides and how helpful it’s been to my understanding – what a terrific product you’ve put together.
Jack Brown on Renewable Energy Project Finance Modeling December 2022 In-Person New York
The course was very well presented, and done in a way that really explained the logic and concepts behind the model as well as creating the model itself. Also really great to pick up a lot of good tips about best practice modelling. The online materials are also a really good base for the in class learning.
Hoping to be able to do a bit more of your classes going forward.
Ryan James (CBA) on Renewable Energy Project Finance Modeling February 2023 In-Person Sydney
Thank you for providing such an exceptional course on Project Finance Modeling. I struggle to find a critique in my reflection. Both trainers were extremely helpful and positive, which made the course that much greater. I want to especially thank you for coming back to follow up on the Macro’s Lessons. That piece really tied the course together for me and further demonstrated Pivotal180’s dedication to excellence.

Full of substance and easy to comprehend. The content was very precise and touched on so many fundamental modelling necessities at the same time. Highly recommended. Rated 5 out of 5
Kehinde Abiove – Renewable Energy Project Finance Modeling (Online)
Sharpening the Pencil! Great primer on formatting and shortcuts that I’ve always wanted to know. This was a great reminder that we’re not just building models for our own use, but to be shared with others and that is why they should be constructed in a manner that is clear, easy to read and easy to run alternative scenarios from.
