Liliana Heiduk Posted April 1 Report Posted April 1 Hello, I have a question regarding the LCOE calculations and the total energy produced, including degradation. Which formula is used to calculate the total energy over the entire period? When I calculate it manually using the following formula, I get a different price for the energy produced. I'm trying to understand where the discrepancy is. Do you account for degradation only in the first year, or is it considered throughout the entire period? Quote
