Identifying and capturing value
in PV BOS

New developments in PV balance-of-system (BOS) technology, design and integration present significant opportunities for PV installers/developers, manufactures and other industry players to reduce costs, differentiate offerings, and capture value in PV BOS.

PHOTON Consulting’s PV balance-of-system briefing, Who’s the BOS? Identifying and Capturing Value in PV BOS, presents a quantified look at BOS cost breakdowns, the impact from BOS optimization on levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) and actionable opportunities to use BOS to improve profitability and reduce risk in the PV downstream.

Please note that this balance-of-system briefing is only available in electronic format (either single user or enterprise license) and is accompanied by a video narration. Please note that for the single user license, the briefing is downloadable to one computer and cannot be printed.
