Metrics Table |  |  |  |

The Metrics table displays a set of output variables for each case in the project file. Solar Advisor displays the Metrics table under the navigation menu when results are available for a case. The output variables that appear in the Metrics table depend on the projects financing options, which are defined in the Technology and Market window.

The output variables displayed in the metrics table are described in detail in Output Variables Reference.

The variables that appear in the Metrics table depend on the type of financing defined on the Financing page as shown in the table below.

Table 30. Output variables that appear in the Metrics table for different financing types.

Financing Option | Output Variables in Metrics Table
Residential - Cash Residential - Loan or Mortgage Commercial Cash Commercial - Standard Loan | Annual Output (kWh) LCOE(nom) LCOE(real) Net Present Value Payback Capacity Factor System Performance Factor (PV systems only)
Utility and IPP Commercial - Third-Party Ownership | Annual Output (kWh) 1st Year PPA Price LCOE(nom) LCOE(real) Internal Rate of Return Minimum DSCR PPA Escalation Debt Fraction Capacity Factor System Performance Factor (PV systems only)

For certain simulation configurations, Solar Advisor displays two columns of values for each output variable:

• | For model runs involving the Multiple Systems simulation configuration, Solar Advisor displays output variables for the active case in the Base column of the Metrics table, and output variables for the combined system in the Combined column.

• | For model runs involving the Statistical simulation configuration, the values of mu, sigma are displayed in the second column of the Metrics table.
