An open source platform for sustainable finance

Project description

equinox is a Python / Django powered portfolio management platform that allows the collection and reporting of project finance risk and sustainability characteristics

Architecture

  • At the core of equinox are a number of data models that capture information about the different entities and concepts involved in Sustainable Finance. These data models follow a logical pattern that is independent of any of the reference standards or eventual applications that are being implemented.

  • Functionality is delivered via a number of apps that process user inputs and portfolio data and deliver analyses and reports

Data Layer

The data layer can be segmented into two major categories: The Physical Layer that holds information about physical aspects of assets, activities etc. and the “socioeconomic” layer that holds information about entities, economic and financial aspects etc.

Physical Layer

  • Project is the core object. It belongs to a Project Category

  • One or More Assets are major real items linked to the Project.

  • Primary Effect is the GHG impact of a Project Activity

  • Secondary Effect is the GHG impact of a Project Activity

  • Project Activity is a specific Sustainability impact (eg GHG reduction) of a Project

Socioeconomic Layer

  • Project Company is a Legal Entity that finances a Project

  • Contractors are Entities that are involved in delivering under contract to the Project Company

  • Operators are Entities that are involved in operating under contract to the Project Company

  • Sponsors are Entities that are involved in commissioning, guaranteeing or providing equity to the Project Company

  • Stakeholders are other entities that are impacted or impacting by the Project Company

  • Revenue focuses specifically on the business model of a Project Company

  • A Loan is a borrowing made by a Project Company

  • Swap is an example of additional contract by the Project Company

  • Scorecard collects relevant data to support the risk analysis of a Project Company

Application Layer
