Apex Utilizes Solargis Meteorological Data for Clean Energy Portfolio




Solargis provided its high-resolution, detailed meteorological data and granular resource to Apex Clean Energy, the leading independent power producer in the United States. The data has been deployed to optimize over 120 of Apex’s solar projects during design, development, and operations – while enabling projects to better integrate advanced technologies such as bifacial and storage.

Solargis and Apex Clean Energy have partnered to provide accurate data every five minutes to support seamless battery operations, better grid integration, and seamless battery operations.

“As the technological complexity of solar assets increases, high quality resource data becomes more essential every day,” says George Szabo, director of solar design at Apex Clean Energy. “Apex strives to create tangible value for every project, and Solargis – with the lowest GHI model uncertainty and interannual variability when paired with our ground-monitoring stations – has enabled our team to do so.”

“Rising transparency around crucial project decisions means U.S. renewable investors are scrutinizing financial projections rigorously,” states Giridaran Srinivasan, Solargis’ CEO for the Americas. “We have been consistently impressed by Apex Clean Energy’s robust data use of high-quality data and commitment to accuracy over the two years we’ve worked together, and we look forward to supporting the wider U.S. solar sector as it takes a leap forward and adopts a best practice approach to solar resource data.”
