Resumo: In April 2016, SunEdison Inc. filed for bankruptcy as its debt obligations were impossible to maintain due to successive losses over the last three years, combined with a swift stock price decline since the summer of 2015. Financial media directs the blame towards the complexity of SunEdison’s business model, overconfidence and excessive risk taking. This work project investigates in more detail the renewable energy market, the fundamental drivers of SunEdison’s business model, the financial contracts prevailing, its functioning, benefits and drawbacks, the credit reliability of the company and, finally, the main failures in its strategy.
