  2. Utility-Scale Solar- One of the Hottest markets in the energy sector With utility-scale solar experiencing this surging growth, and the pipeline poised to continue expanding, securing contracts will likely become more competitive. This means developers would require every tool at their disposal to stand out and have a better chance to win bids.

  3. What are The Four Recommendations To Help Win Utility-Scale Solar Project Proposal Bids? Consider these four recommendations for drafting the most realistic and innovative solution at the lowest price point to help win utility-scale solar project proposal bids: 1. Include a detailed energy yield analysis 2. Incorporate an O&M plan for the site’s lifetime 3. Partner with the right PV module company 4. Use an all-in-one smart solar solution

  4. Include a Detailed Energy Yield Analysis It’s important to plot out the irradiance of the project not just in the present, but over the expected course of a solar installation’s lifetime. This is where a detailed P50/P90 analysis comes into play. These analyses use meteorological data and advanced methods to help assess the photovoltaic energy yield of a potential site over a period of time. Using a hybrid approach of both ground-based and satellite-based weather data files can help calculate a more precise irradiance value for the proposed site.

  5. 2. Incorporate an O&M plan for the site’s lifetime Having a long-term plan in place for operations and maintenance (O&M) for the site’s proposed lifetime can be a wise idea. Regular O&M of the installation helps ensure the PV system operates at optimal performance levels while avoiding energy losses. A third-party O&M company can provide cost-saving measures such as 24/7 system monitoring, coordinate service calls and cover maintenance and repairs for the PV system.

  6. 3. Partner with the right PV module company Investors and financiers choosing the winning bid want to know the solar modules used in the installation will perform as expected. This mitigates the chance of risking downtime and delaying a return on investment. When selecting the modules, be sure to partner with a module manufacturer that has a solid track record of bankability and reliability.

  7. 4. Use an all-in-one smart solar solution Utility-scale solar projects can be a complicated and tedious process that requires managing multiple vendors, distributors, authorities having jurisdiction (AHJs) and a host of other factors. Using an all-in-one smart solar solution like TrinaPro helps streamline the installation and boost power gains. After custom project scoping, the TrinaSolar team designs the system to ensure all major system components are optimized for interoperability. Then, a one-stop procurement process helps guarantee seamless delivery, which reduces the chance of delays and keeps the project on schedule.
