General

Project Name Display name for the facility that will appear in the Navigation Bar, notification emails, and reports.
Site ID Unique site ID used to globally identify this facility. Contact your account manager for details.
Time zone Local time zone of facility
COD Commercial Operation Date - YYYY-MM-DD when facility put into service. Used when calculating annual degradation.
PPA Power Purchase Agreement Interconnection Limit - the maximum true power (kW) that the facility can export from all combined generators (PV, battery, etc.). Used when calculating expected power and power capacity %

Location

Address Street address of the facility - recommended to use navigation and delivery friendly address.
Lat/Long Latitude and Longitude of the facility. These may be auto-filled based on address, or specify a different point (such as geographic center of facility or location of weather station). Lat/Long are used to calculate sun position for sunrise and sunset times, and tracker simulation.
Elevation Representative elevation of facility used to calculate sun position.
