Project finance modeling clarity to scale confidently

Investor-grade models and real-time analysis for faster, better capital decisions.

CHALLENGE

Spreadsheet chaos is costing you time, money, and deals.

Changing policy demands a deeper analysis, yet many developers still rely on outdated, error-prone, and painfully slow spreadsheet models. Answering questions like “should we sign a PPA for $90/MWh, buy safe harbor equipment to begin construction, and raise a $100 million development capital facility” take months to evaluate.

Overview

CapeZero centralizes and operationalizes project finance data so teams can align faster, manage complexity, and deploy capital more efficiently—without enterprise overhead.
