Your project schedule is only as strong as your supply chain.
Procurement delays can quietly derail even the most well-planned (on paper, or on MS Project) solar and BESS project.
Critical Procurement Considerations
So you might want to consider this:
Long-Lead Items & Supply Chain
Has your procurement plan locked in all long-lead items early on?
Recent Market Challenges:
Since the federal battery grant started from July this year, it is extremely difficult to get hold of residential batteries. Have you factored the impact of such news into your schedule?
Manufacturing & Logistics
Have you confirmed:
Warranties & Performance
Are warranties in place — and do they match your project's required performance expectations?
Testing & Certification
Are solar panels tested and certified for your region's conditions?
CEC Compliance & Standards Updates
Are you ensuring that the major equipment are listed on the Clean Energy Council?
On 23rd August, CEC sent a notification that only 1,662 models of inverters are on the approved inverter list as per the updated standard AS 4777.2:2024.
Do you keep yourself updated of such changes on a regular basis?
Contingency Planning
Do you have contingency plans for supply chain disruptions?
A single delayed or non-compliant component can snowball into missed milestones, perhaps liquidated damages, and even lost revenue.
