Glossary and Abbreviations
Net Present Value
The total net present cost (NPC) of a system is the present value of all
the costs the system incurs over its lifetime, minus the present value of
all the revenue it earns over its lifetime. Costs include capital costs,
replacement costs, O & M costs, fuel costs, emissions penalties, and
the costs of buying power from the grid. Revenues include salvage
value and grid sales revenue. HOMER calculates the total NPC by
summing the total discounted cash flows in each year of the project
lifetime.

Total Annualized Cost

- is the annualized value of the total net present cost. The annualized
cost of a component is the cost that, if it were to occur equally in every
year of the project lifetime, would give the same net present cost as
the actual cash flow sequence associated with that component.
HOMER calculates annualized cost by first calculating the net present
cost, then multiplying it by the capital recovery factor.

Simple payback
- is the number of years at which the cumulative cash flow of the
difference between the current system and base case system switches
from negative to positive. The payback is an indication of how long it
would take to recover the difference in investment costs between the
current system and the base case system.

Return on Investment (ROI)

- is the yearly cost savings relative to the initial investment. The ROI is
the average yearly difference in nominal cash flows over the project
lifetime, divided by the difference in capital cost.

Internal rate of return (IRR)

- is the discount rate at which the base case and current system have
the same net present cost. HOMER calculates the IRR by determining
the discount rate that makes the present value of the difference of the
two cash flow sequences equal to zero.

About HOMER Pro
HOMER® Pro simulates engineering and economic feasibility of
microgrid or distributed energy systems that are off-grid or tied to an
unreliable grid and enables the design of least-cost electrical systems
and risk-mitigation strategies. The software provides insight into cost-
effectively combining conventional and renewable energy, storage, grid
resources (where available), and load management.

In a single data run, HOMER Pro simulates the operation of a hybrid

microgrid or distributed energy system for an entire year, evaluating
and optimizing the electrical system design, load profiles, components,
fuel costs, and environmental variables. The simulation produces key
information on technical performance, risk-mitigation, and projected
cost-savings to inform system design and optimization. Results are
presented in a succinct Microgrid Proposal. For more information, visit
HomerEnergy.com.

About HOMER Energy by UL

HOMER software is
used by more than
200,000 users in 193
different countries.

HOMER Energy by UL is the developer and distributor of HOMER

software, a global standard for energy modeling tools that analyze
solar-plus-storage, microgrids, and other distributed energy projects.

HOMER software helps engineers and project developers navigate the

complexities of designing cost-effective and reliable microgrids that
combine traditional and renewable generation sources. The company
makes two software platforms: HOMER Pro for the design of least-cost
hybrid microgrid or distributed energy systems for use off-grid or when
tied to an unreliable grid; and HOMER Grid, which helps design behind-
the-meter solar-plus-storage systems to reduce costs and lower carbon
footprints.

Since its founding in Boulder, Colorado in 2009, HOMER Energy

software has proven effective for analyzing complex distributed energy
