Solar 2% Revenue Recovery Calculator

 

Unallocated losses are costing your solar portfolio more than you think.
 
Across 130+ operating assets, we consistently see a ~5% unknown loss bucket — energy yield that quietly disappears without triggering alarms.
 
Use the calculator below to estimate what recovering just 2% of that looks like for your portfolio in real dollar terms.
 
Enter your plant’s DC capacity, capacity factor, DC-to-AC ratio, and electricity price, and we’ll show you the annual and lifetime revenue impact. These are conservative, first-year estimates based on industry statistics for inverter and combiner outages — the actual recoverable figure at your site may be higher.
