Thanks for creating this forum. It's very timely.I'd like to see a third-party ownership model that includes Energy-as-a-Service (EaaS) and Microgrid-as-a-Service (MaaS). I want to choose what percentage of the total savings from the investment to share with the host, including an option for them to buy down the cost. Then, I want to see the returns for both the host and the developer. Right now, you can do this analysis by modifying the exported spreadsheet, but it would be great to do it directly within the SAM environment.Also, it would be great if we could run a solar + battery energy storage system (BESS) + fuel cell resiliency/savings analysis within the SAM environment.Thanks,

Thank you for the suggestions.

You should be able to use the Fuel Cell / Commercial configuration with grid outage for the solar / battery / fuel cell analysis.

Best regards,
Paul.

Hi Upen,

Please start a new topic with a more detailed question about what you are trying to do. This topic has too many different discussions, so I am not sure which option you are asking about.

Best regards,
Paul.
