Solar Resource Mapping
Locating the Most Profitable Site
We maintain and update every half hour a global data set of horizontal, diffuse and direct normal irradiance. Developed using in-house, proprietary satellite data processing technologies, our datasets have supported successful development of solar projects in Canada, United States, Australia and Middle East. Developed in interactive GIS format, our comprehensive decision support systems incorporate all relevant data layers such as topography and shading, electricity grid proximity, roads and waterways, soil type, environmental issues such as migratory paths or protected areas. This allows for easy comparison of potential sites and gives the right detail needed for sound business planning.
Solar Asset Rating
Making the Right Choice at the Right Time
Investors considering multiple solar sites need an effective, independent system for rating and prioritizing investment in their solar assets. Our rating system presented in an interactive GIS-based decision support format gives investors a simple, but customized map of potential solar investments rated by expected ROI. This allows clients (and their financiers) to develop a long term plan for deploying solar energy projects. |
Design
Getting it Right the First time
At Green Power Labs we focus on bridging the gap between solar technologies and their efficient deployment by providing impartial, thorough analysis of a site’s suitability for use of solar power technologies.
A core member of an integrated design team, the energy engineer sees energy performance as an integral and a critical part of any solar power plant design. Our deep understanding of solar power technologies and advanced modelling skills help identify opportunities for maximizing a plant’s capacity to gather all available solar resource. Our independent expertise in best practices for deployment of solar technologies allows for an impartial approach to plant design. With a comprehensive knowledge of solar applications and many years of engineering expertise, Green Power Labs is uniquely positioned to represent the interests of our clients in addressing the practical problem of securing long term top-performing solar power generation.
Quality Assurance
Focus on Risk and Quality Management
As technology solutions for solar power generation continue to dynamically change, our expertise in risk and quality management assures our clients of a successful deployment of solar power projects. We evaluate risks related to equipment performance, contractor competency, and establish installation standards. We develop and/or review project quality management system; system design reviews; contractor evaluations; cost control reviews and performance monitoring reviews. |
