Modeling notes (Executive view)
14 inputs are visible. The other ~10 (DNI, inverter loss, target cleanliness, mob factor, manual cleaning $/MW, water value, robot COGS, NovaSun opex, NovaSun cycles, panel geometry) use the regional default from the source datasheets. For full control, switch to the MW driver or Layout driver from the top-right links.
One robot per row. Number of rows is derived from farm size — assumes ~308 panels per row of 1 m each. NovaSun is rail-mounted, self-energized, runs nightly (365 cycles / yr).
Infrastructure cost derived as rails $5/m × 2 + gutter $10/m × 1, × shipping multiplier × total row length. Per the original Word-doc spec.
Customer benefits = energy uplift (net of NovaSun fees) + manual cleaning saved (with mob factor on remote sites) + water saving (90% recycling vs nightly baseline).
NovaSun revenues = HW margin upfront (one-time) + maintenance fee per robot + performance share of incremental energy.
