CAPEX bands & tariff routing

How country, land use, mount type, and terrain drive RevenueIQ screening numbers.

Country routing

RevenueIQ resolves ISO country from your project location (text country field first, coordinate bounding box as fallback). Tariff logic covers major solar markets including DE, AT, CH, ES, IT, FR, PL, NL, US, IN, AU, and a global default band.

CAPEX benchmarks

O&M labour (OPEX)

The O&M component of annual OPEX uses a country labour-cost multiplier on top of a global €/kWp/yr benchmark band — separate from the CAPEX country multiplier, because local labour rates and equipment import costs do not move together. India applies a lower multiplier than Germany or Switzerland; land lease, insurance, asset management, and grid fees use their own logic and are not multiplied.

Land lease (OPEX)

Standard vs Agri-PV land-lease €/ha/yr bands feed OPEX and LCOE — screening placeholders, not negotiated lease terms.

Revenue / tariffs

US ITC

Optional ITC rate reduces effective CAPEX in US projects — indicative IRA-style screening; eligibility requires detailed tax and compliance review.

Currency

Results shown in local currency where mapped (EUR, USD, INR, AUD, etc.) with EUR reference for cross-border portfolio comparison.
