WORK WITH US

Roughly 70% of global power still comes from non-renewable, polluting energy resources. As a climate-friendly and cost-effective energy solution, solar has the potential to drastically reduce our global CO2 emissions, helping to meet the World's climate obligations for a clean energy transition. 

Global market projections forecast installed solar energy generation capacities to reach 2 Terawatts by the end of 2025, under optimal conditions. This will require the deployment of approximately 5 billion solar panels. However, building solar projects and getting them up and running is only the beginning. Once sites are operational, many factors can interfere with performance.

What we know from the industry's largest energy validation study is that, on average, solar energy systems underperformed their initial estimates by 5-13% from 2011 to 2020 (kWh Analytics 2021 Solar Generation Index). This number may seem inconsequential but considering that an average 100 MW capacity solar project requires hundreds of thousands of panels and other components, this variance in expected versus actual performance can result in tens of millions of dollars in energy loss per year for solar asset owners. The impacts of this reality are industry-wide and jeopardize asset owners', equity investors', and financiers' long-term financial returns.

Aligning financial risk and reward with low-carbon energy investment is critical for shifting the economy in the direction of lower GHG emissions. Without substantial private sector investment in clean energy, it will be more difficult, more costly, and more time-consuming to address climate change on a global scale.

Our role is in helping to ensure solar energy projects are optimized to yield expected returns in a way that maximizes power output performance and reliability of components, modules, and arrays.
