Site assessment for renewable energy projects is a structured and crucial initial process to identify potential land parcels suitable for development. It involves evaluation of various factors influencing a project's buildability, security, and economic viability. Site assessment is essential because it enables project developers to pinpoint the most promising locations by intelligently combining relevant evaluation criteria, such as interconnection potential, proximity to the grid, zoning, buildable area/hazard analysis, and initial layouts. Such early-stage analysis ensures that resources are focused on viable sites, minimizing risks and maximizing the potential for successful project development.
