Webinar details for final solar and wind appraisal model

In case you missed it, last Thursday we announced that the final 2022 discount rates and model for appraising solar and wind energy systems with a nameplate capacity equal to or greater than one megawatt are now online.

Assessors are required to use the model and discount rates to value and place 2022 assessments on affected solar and wind energy systems.

See Appraisal methodology for solar and wind energy projects to get started.

On Tuesday, October 26 at 2:00 p.m., we’ll hold a webinar to walk through the final model and answer your questions.
