Teresa W. Zhang

I testified as an expert witness on solar resource and photovoltaic energy production modeling for GCL vs. PsomasFMG. I previously performed technical due diligence, including solar resource, energy production, and/or inter-annual variability analysis, on nearly 2.0 GW of solar asset transactions.

With partners in Solar Modules, I spearheaded the deployment of bifacial, or double sided, module technologies in SunEdison solar power projects. I was invited by Sandia National Laboratory and TÜV Rheinland to chair their first workshop session on bifacial performance modeling.

My PhD dissertation is on life cycle analysis of amorphous silicon photovoltaic systems using hybrid economic input-output (EIO) methods. I created life cycle analysis tools for semiconductor manufacturers and developed EIO-based methods of quantifying the impacts of energy-labor substitutions.
