Run a solar site feasibility screen

Resource, interconnection, permitting, and economics screened in order of deal-killer risk.

intermediate~40 minSolar EngineersEnergy AnalystsProject Developers

Steps

1Screen interconnection FIRST: queue position, capacity headroom, upgrade cost estimates
2Assess resource data quality (measured vs modeled) and shading geometry
3Verify land control options and zoning/permitting pathway realistically
4Model economics with P50 production, current incentives, and downside tariff cases
5Rank fatal flaws before nice-to-haves; walk early when screens fail
6Document assumptions versioned — feasibility memos get re-litigated

Common Pitfalls

▲Falling in love with great sites the grid cannot serve
▲Modeled resource accepted without measured validation
