If you type “Should my company invest in on-site solar?” into Google, you’re likely to see an extensive list of results comparing pros and cons. While on-site solar offers numerous benefits, determining its suitability for your organization and understanding the benefits can be a process. All this to say, there’s still no clear-cut answer to this question that fully considers the pragmatic approach to initiating a solar program.

3 Considerations Before Investing In On-Site Solar Power Generation

The Renewable Energy Test Center (RETC) released its 2024 PV Module Index report, evaluating the reliability, quality, and performance of solar panels. Solar modules are put through a variety of accelerated stress tests to evaluate these parameters. Through comparative test results, project stakeholders can select products best suited for a particular environment, location, or portfolio.

Truck accessories are an important part of personalizing your ride and it's even better when one accessory has a multi-purpose capability. Popular trucks like the Toyota Tundra have their fair share of popular modifications, which enhance the truck's capabilities or negate some of its imperfections. I usually don't endorse products, but I was sent press material about something that I think shouldn't be slept upon.

Electric vehicles (EVs) are practical for those who commute about 25 minutes each way in the US. However, EVs are more of a burden than a solution for longer trips and in areas that don't have the charging infrastructure in place. Work trucks and pickups do even more miles, working throughout the day, often pulling large loads, which further drains batteries. Even with a charging network, these vehicles can't afford to stand around for up to an hour charging their batteries before they can go again.

Glass is a unique material used for its chemical stability and visual transparency. It is commonly used in solar panels as a protective outer layer. In its annual PV Module Index, the Renewable Energy Test Center (RETC) examined emerging issues in solar glass manufacturing and field performance. It found reports of a concerning rise in solar panel glass spontaneously breaking in the field, sometimes even before commissioning.
