Choose the right perspective
Utility-scale questions go to Erin O'Keefe, S.E. and Sushil Patil, and commercial and industrial projects to Bhagi Natarajan, Bryce Halford and Michael Robinson. Andrew Kuang and Darshan Choudhary hold design engineering director titles, Jayvone Severin covers residential and commercial PV, and Lucindo De Freitas (based in Madrid) and Ciaran Cotter (London) bring PV engineering and technical director roles outside the US.
Questions to take into the conversation
- 01How do you get a commercial rooftop design through structural review and permitting without a redesign?
- 02Which interconnection requirements most often change the electrical design of a utility-scale PV and BESS project?
- 03Where do construction costs on a solar carport or ground mount usually run over the estimate?
