Solar LCOE: Financing, Curtailment and Interconnection in 2026
A low module price does not establish a low export-meter cost. A solar project spends most capital before earning revenue; expensive financing and a constrained connection can overwhelm equipment savings. Calculate energy that crosses the settlement meter, then ask whether its hourly value pays for that cost. LCOE measures production cost, not the market value of daytime generation or an industrial customer’s avoided bill.
Solar LCOE: Financing, Curtailment and Interconnection in 2026
Wind Capture Price: Congestion, Export Losses and Revenue
Wind profitability depends on the price when wind actually exports. The arithmetic average market price weights quiet and windy hours equally; capture price weights each hour by delivered MWh. Congestion may remove volume while also changing which hours remain. Treating every lost MWh at the annual average conceals this interaction. A low-cost turbine at a weak node can earn less than a more expensive turbine at a strong connection.
Wind Capture Price: Congestion, Export Losses and Revenue
BESS Arbitrage: Throughput, Degradation and Net Spread
The useful spread is not selling price minus charging price. A battery buys more MWh than it sells, consumes cycle life and may face fixed operating costs even when idle. Dispatch only when incremental revenue covers charging losses, wear and settlement charges. Positive dispatch margin still does not prove that the asset repays capital.
BESS Arbitrage: Throughput, Degradation and Net Spread
Industrial Power PPAs: Fixed, Floating and Profile Risk
A fixed PPA fixes a contractual price, not necessarily the complete factory bill. Volume, hourly shape, node difference, balancing and network charges can remain floating. Compare contracts against the same hourly factory load. Annual generation equal to annual consumption does not imply full coverage when production and consumption occur at different times.
Industrial Power PPAs: Fixed, Floating and Profile Risk
Transformer Losses: Capital Premium, Electricity Cost and NPV
The cheapest transformer quotation can be the more expensive operating choice, but a premium only earns its value through avoided losses at the actual load profile. Core losses persist while energized; load losses vary approximately with current squared. A factory with short operating shifts and a continuously energized transformer therefore needs a different valuation from a heavily loaded continuous process.
