Energy Assessment
Yield assumptions get locked into financing before anyone measures the site. GroundWork establishes the ground truth baseline lenders require — before capital flows.

Defensible certainty before decisions become irreversible — from development through operations
Performance Test
Acceptance is when liability transfers from EPC to owner. GroundWork validates what you're accepting before schedules force the decision.
Plant Monitoring
Undetected performance loss without proof is unrecoverable. GroundWork provides the baseline to find it while remedies still exist.
Extreme Weather
When hail hits, insurance claims and warranty disputes follow. GroundWork provides independent event documentation and lab testing that holds up under scrutiny.
Module Performance
Not all modules perform as rated. GroundWork verifies the watts you paid for, so performance has a paper trail.
