How Self-Paced Learning Works
Our approach emphasises why things work the way they do, and how the many moving pieces fit together in the broader context of a transaction.
Pivotal180 training does more than improve your best-practice modeling skills. Best-practice models are critical in project finance, but our courses go further than financial modeling and Excel technique. We explain how the numbers align with the underlying financial and engineering concepts, transaction structures, legal documentation, market conditions and risk management approaches.
The training is not just about coding. It teaches you to understand the bigger picture — contract structures, risk, how to forecast wind — and how to analyse deals. Much of the content focuses on how to meet the needs of lenders, developers and the various equity participants.
The quality and clarity of our online content is exceptional, and there is simply nothing else like it in the market

Great Course !
I found this financial modelling course excellent from start to finish. Matt is highly knowledgeable, explained concepts clearly, and was very engaging throughout. The worked examples were particularly useful, walking through real-world scenarios step by step. I’d highly recommend this course.

Great Class!
by James Griffard on Tax Equity and Hybrid Financial Modeling!
Extremely thorough and well taught
I started this course knowing next to nothing about financial modeling or project finance, and while this course gets into some pretty dense material, it starts with the basics which really helped me get a lot of value out of it. I am walking away with a much better understanding of both project finance and financial modeling and I’m looking forward to putting these skills to practice.

“Haydn has an ability to step outside of the Excel code and really explain the core concepts. His course taught me how to model and to understand the deal.” Student of the Renewable Energy Project Finance Modeling Course – Columbia University
It is the most comprehensive project finance course I have ever done. Thank you so much for the opportunity.
Oluwatosin Omisakin on Renewable Energy Project Finance Modeling (Online)!
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!
Sander Maebe on Renewable Energy Project Finance Modeling (Online)!
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.
Connor Malone on Tax Equity Modeling (Online)!
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.
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.
Madelyn Mallory on Renewable Energy Project Finance Modeling (Online)
A great course with complex materials delivered in a very comprehensive manner making it easy to follow the concepts and reasoning behind the modelling exercise
Kehinde Abioye on Tax Equity Modeling (Online)!
