"Traditional Barriers" Meet "Modern Solutions" Scaling Sustainable Infrastructure
Substantial capital investment has grown and presents tremendous opportunities for businesses and our planet as a whole. However, the industry is hindered by inefficiencies and outdated methodologies that prevent it from fully capitalizing on this potential. Traditional approaches, often designed for large-scale projects like single power plants, are ill-suited for the growing number of smaller, distributed projects such as solar facilities. These methods, which lack proper standardization and processes, struggle to manage more than a handful of projects efficiently with limited teams.
