This one is super easy because for SharePoint 2016, project server comes already installed with the SharePoint build. So this post will be super short.

Got to PowerShell and add the Snap in

Add-PSSnapin "Microsoft.SharePoint.Powershell" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue

Now run this simple code below and make sure to put in your license key.

b.	Enable-ProjectServerLicense -Key "xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx"

In the SharePoint Central Administration website, under Application Management, click Manage service applications. Check the service applications list for a Project Server Service Application. There should be one there now, but if not you can just create by clicking in the top left and creating the service application. That is all there is to it, way easier than SharePoint 2013.
