This paper is intended to highlight best practices, as well as common pitfalls in valuing solar energy projects including the tangible and intangible assets comprising a fully contracted in-place system (a “solar asset”). The allocation of the purchase price by buyers for both financial reporting and income tax reporting has also been the subject of controversy and wide disparity in practice for solar assets.

This is a critical question given the many customer segments that are available, the different business models that exist, and the impending technology shifts.

Residential installations—headed for about 20 GWh in 2030—represent the smallest BESS segment. From a technology perspective, the main battery metrics that customers care about are cycle life and affordability.

The price of solar panels has declined substantially over the last decade as the industry has matured and reached production at the largest global scale. Since 2010, the cost to install solar panels on a home has fallen by roughly 50%. Costs rose slightly from 2020-2023 largely due to supply chain tangles from the pandemic, and then.

Photovoltaics (PV) is the conversion of light into electricity using semiconducting materials that exhibit the photovoltaic effect, a phenomenon studied in physics, photochemistry, and electrochemistry. The photovoltaic effect is commercially used for electricity generation and as photosensors. Module performance is generally rated under standard test conditions (STC): of 1,000 , solar of 1.
