Profitability of renewable energy technologies

The underlying paper aims at detecting key external parameters that influence profitability of Renewable Energy Technologies (RET) and at providing for a preliminary ranking of their importance. As profitability is key to the future development of RET a ranking of profitability drivers could support policymakers in their efforts to foster such growth. Profitability will be analyzed through computation of Net Present Value and Electricity Generation Costs for RET project cases with market- and regulation-driven factors being part of the scenario analysis. The analysis will be conducted on case studies from biogas, solar, wind and water power.Master of Business Administratio
