The document provides financial and operational inputs and outputs for analyzing the economic feasibility of a solar PV project. Key inputs include a capital cost of $825/kWp, O&M costs of $10/kWp-yr, a PPA rate of $0.029749/kWh, and an expected annual yield of 2100 kWh/kWp. The analysis calculates performance metrics like LCOE, payback period, NPV, IRR, and debt service coverage ratios to determine the project's feasibility.
