More Than a Replacement Cost Estimate
Historical installed cost or a simple replacement-cost calculation does not necessarily represent what a renewable energy asset is worth today.
Technology prices change. Equipment ages. Market conditions move. Asset characteristics differ.
Buckstop combines asset-level information with current renewable energy market intelligence to develop a valuation that reflects the asset being appraised today.
