I was making a much narrower point above, just that there isn't additional overhead involved in shutting down for a day with our system, as opposed to sending hundreds of workers h…

We joke that Mars will be the easiest market for us to penetrate :)

Yes, silicon is still the majority[1], and it really just boils down to all-in cost. In watts per dollar thin-film ends up being reasonably competitive with silicon, but only becau…

Yes! Sorry I explained poorly above, I meant there isn't additional logistical overhead involved in stopping operations for a day for robots, whereas there's tons when workers are …

Definitely, we've experienced workers being sent home for a number of reasons (too cold, too windy, too rainy, materials didn't show up as scheduled). Fortunately with an autonomou…

Black Rock City's DPW for solar is a really interesting idea! Temporary housing is definitely used at times for more remote projects, but it's more expensive than just booking out …

Absolutely. A couple that we're closely looking at: Better documentation/data/insight into exactly what was built when, install rates, fuel consumption, and vehicle utilization dur…

Reports are somewhat varied here but we find that about 10-20% of the overall site cost goes into labor. The bulk of the rest is component cost for solar modules and tracking syste…

We're operating as a subcontractor for existing large construction firms, where we come in and do the mechanical construction step. In general robotics companies need to pick betwe…

Dane! Good to hear from you, and thanks!

Thanks! Great to hear from you (assuming I don't miss my guess from your username), hope everything's been going well for you. Looking forward to staying in touch as we make progre…

Not sure why you're getting downvoted, you're dead on. I just finished routing an LPDDR4 bus (high speed + low voltage => worst case signal integrity) between two BGAs with signals…
