Simulating your site as it is: near shading, bifacial modules, and terrain-aware backtracking
JUN 30, 26 | 11AM (CEST) · CECILIA HERNANDEZ
Most energy models treat your site as a clean slate. No neighbouring wind turbines. No tree lines. No slopes that shift tracker angles row by row. That gap between the model and reality is where yield uncertainty lives, and where bankability conversations get uncomfortable.
In this webinar, Cecilia (Technical Advisor at RatedPower) will show you how the 3D Energy tool handles the full picture: near shading from external objects, bifacial irradiance accounting, and terrain-aware backtracking, all computed in one simulation run.
🔍 What you’ll learn
-
How to model external objects (trees, buildings, wind turbines) in RatedPower and quantify their shading impact per inverter
-
How the 3D Energy report covers near-shading analysis for bankability, without relying on external tools
-
How terrain-aware backtracking reduces shading losses by optimising tracker angles based on real topography
-
Why bifacial panels behave differently across a sloped site, and how to account for the variation in bifacial gains across your layout
Whether you're working on a constrained site near existing infrastructure, a hybrid PV + wind project, or a hillside plant where bifacial gains vary across zones, this session will show you how to close the gap between your model and the real world.
