NREL’s Jordan Macknick, Fresh Energy’s Rob Davis, and SoCore Energy’s Laura Caspari will present an update on research and work related to co-location of agriculture and solar.
Site preparation costs for utility-scale solar projects are expected to account for 20% of utility-scale PV installed costs in 2020.
