What problem are you trying to solve?
Project Development
Is this the right site, technology and system design?
Technical decisions made early in development can affect project cost, energy production, constructability, and long-term performance. Intertek CEA helps evaluate those decisions while changes are still easier and less costly to make.
What this helps you decide
Whether the proposed site, technology, design approach, and expected energy performance support the project before major capital is committed.
Engineering & Construction
Is the project being designed and built correctly?
Design requirements can be lost or changed as a project moves into procurement and construction. Independent engineering oversight helps identify technical, quality, and construction risks before they affect schedule, performance, or project value.
What this helps you decide
Whether project design, construction, workmanship, and expected performance remain aligned with technical requirements before problems become harder to correct.
Operations & Maintenance
Why is the asset underperforming or costing more to operate?
Operating assets can lose energy, reliability, and value for many different reasons. Intertek CEA helps identify technical problems, evaluate operating performance, and determine where corrective action can have the greatest impact.
What this helps you decide
What is limiting asset performance, whether corrective work is required, and where operational or technical improvements can reduce losses or operating cost.
Field Inspection
What is actually happening in the field?
Solar assets can look normal while carrying hidden module damage, electrical faults, safety risks, or performance losses. Field inspection helps establish the actual condition of the asset and determine how broadly an issue extends.
What this helps you decide
Whether a suspected issue is real, where it is occurring, how widespread it is, and what information is needed for remediation, warranty, claim, or investment decisions.
Project Sale & Acquisition
What technical risks am I taking on in this transaction?
Project documents and financial models do not always show the full technical condition of an operating asset. Independent engineering due diligence helps identify design, equipment, performance, and field risks before a transaction closes.
What this helps you decide
Whether the asset's technical condition, historical performance, equipment, and remaining risks support the assumptions behind the transaction.
