Solar PV Advisory
Solar photovoltaic is now the cheapest source of new electricity in most QSL markets. Sub-US$0.025/kWh tariffs are reshaping utility procurement and unlocking record DFI deployment for utility-scale solar.
Why solar matters now
Module costs have fallen more than 80% over the past decade. Bifacial modules, single-axis trackers, and larger inverters continue to drive LCOE lower, while corporate offtake and green hydrogen demand expand the addressable market.
Where we work
QSL leads solar project finance mandates in Colombia's UPME auctions, South Africa's REIPPPP programme, the US ITC/PTC market, and across LATAM. Our team has experience with everything from 20 MW distributed portfolios to 500 MW+ utility-scale projects.
Typical capital stack
60–70% senior project debt, 15–25% equity, and 10–15% mezzanine or DFI concessional tranches — with local-currency and hard-currency layers tuned to revenue profile.
