Energy yield analysis (EYA) underpins solar investment decisions, financing and expectations around long-term project performance. As the sector matures, however, developers, lenders and asset owners increasingly need more than a forecast. They need confidence that its underlying assumptions reflect...

As utility-scale solar matures, investors and asset owners are looking beyond installed capacity towards operational performance, resilience and long-term yield. This is changing expectations for PV tracker systems, particularly as projects move onto more difficult terrain and face increasingly vari...
