A Draft Funding Model for the SKA A Scenario Based on US SKA RFI May 2009

What is a Funding Model? A coordinated, coherent and equitable plan for the allocation and optimisation of funds to construction, operation and ultimately decommissioning of the SKA

Scope An option based on the US SKA RFI* Integrates US SKA RFI and Astronet Infrastructure Roadmap Phase 3 and decommissioning not in scope Assumes 2014 site infrastructure construction start * US SKA RFI submitted to the US Decadal Review Board in April 2009

Funding Proposal Construction Phase Capital Cost €1670 M (Phase 1+Phase 2) Phase 2 - 1/3 Split among Europe, Rest of World and USA Phase 1 – Europe assumes 60% costs Phase 1 – Host assumes 20% costs Post PrepSKA Phase added Phase 1 Construction starts 2015 Contingency costs included [Insert link on wiki to view spreadsheet]

Not Known Treatment of Pathfinders Phase 3 costs Time Value of money, currency fluctuations in exchange rates, etc. Power costs

Issues Treatment of in kind contributions pre-construction Selected site capex and opex impact Impact of different governance models Feasibility of capped costs approach
