Abstract
A method and apparatus for validating distributed energy resource as-designed parameters. In one embodiment the method comprises obtaining, from MLPE coupled to a PV module of the DER, data corresponding to sunrise on a particular day; obtaining, from MLPE, data corresponding to sunset on the particular day; determining, by the computer system and using the data corresponding to the sunrise and the data corresponding to the sunset, (i) the length of the particular day and (ii) the solar noon for the particular day; computing, by the computer system and using the length of the particular day and the solar noon for the particular day, an as-built latitude for the PV module and an as-built longitude for the PV module; and comparing, by the computer system, (a) the as-built latitude to an as-designed latitude for the PV module, and (b) the as-built longitude to an as-designed longitude for the PV module.
