Solar Consulting & Development Services

Building a multi-megawatt solar power installation is a complex and expensive undertaking. Installations of this size can take years from start to finish, and the smallest error in the early stages could cost you millions in project overruns or could prevent the project from being built.

Borrego Solar's Consulting & Development Services are designed to help independent power providers, and clients with a portfolio of net metered sites deploy megawatts of solar PV at the lowest cost with the least risk.

 

Our solar consulting and development services are designed for organizations, developers, and independent power producers (IPPs) considering large-scale solar installation projects, typically 1MW to 50MW.

We provide you with direct access to our 30 years of experience developing solar PV and help you evaluate whether your solar project is financially viable—without requiring you to take on large development risk.

We are capable of conducting detailed site discovery services that will determine if your site is ideal for solar. We also identify challenges you may face in development, and recommend a solar technology that is best for your site.

Through the  feasibility-phase, you get the information you need to make the right decisions at the right time, which mitigates risk and reduces your overall development cost.

Our suite of consulting services can take your project from site discovery to completion. We offer services in a standard package or a la carte. From investigating site feasibility to conducting a Request for Proposals (RFP), to completing a conceptual design, to evaluating and recommending finance structures- we will give you the knowledge you need to make the decisions on how best to move your project forward. Our approach is objective and data driven and should you decide to move forward to construction we can perform as an owner advocate to ratify procurement contracts, manage the construction under a multiple prime structure, and provide quality control and commissioning services.
