Factor This! Episode 17: Solar's report card is coming. And a reckoning could follow

Over the past year, DroneBase, a company that conducts aerial assessments of utility-scale solar projects, drove up and down the western and eastern seaboards of North America to develop what it hopes will become a comprehensive database of every major solar project.

A resource like this would give DroneBase the ability to rate developers, EPCs, and asset owners, as well as the manufacturers of modules, trackers, and inverters, based on performance.

That report card could bring a new level of transparency, and a reckoning, to the solar industry.

Mark Culpepper, the general manager of DroneBase's solar division, joins Episode 17 of the Factor This!™ podcast to discuss the new platform and the implications for the industry.
