Ahmad Elghobashy Posted November 8, 2017 Report Share Posted November 8, 2017 Are the yield reports generated using PVsol recognized by top lenders like EBRD or IFC? are the reports bankable? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
developer_mh Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 Hey Ahmad, thank you for your interesting question. While we cannot speak for EBRD or IFC, we have not heard of a project being rejected because it was designed in PV*SOL. What we experienced is that in Europe there is no difficulty in getting support from banks when producing PV*SOL reports. But in the end it all depends on the specific bank, the employee and of course on the project size (in EUR or USD). The bigger your project is, the higher will be the requirements for the project report. In general, you should be able to prove to the bank that you follow state-of-the-art design rules and use certified components. The IFC e.g. has a report where they point out what is important when designing PV projects in their eyes. And then, there is the bible or quran of PV system design, with (really) everything you need to know when you want to build PV plants: http://www.dgs-berlin.de/en/publications/internationalmanuals.html I would really recommend this to anyone associated with designing or constructing PV plants.
