VDER, also known as the "Value Stack", is a mechanism that compensates solar energy and other clean renewable technologies that are considered distributed generation technologies. The capacity ratings are 5 MW AC and under. VDER is made up of the LBMP value, ICAP auction pricing, DRV value, and REC price. The REC and DRV value are the only stable components, as the LBMP and ICAP pricing will fluctuate within the NYISO wholesale power markets.
To learn more about VDER you can speak to a YSG Solar Energy Consultant. YSG's analysis takes a quantitative approach in order to model out forward price curves for VDER pricing. Creating sensitivity models, to manage risk associated with the volatile attributes of VDER, enables YSG to properly price our energy generating assets whose cash flows derive from VDER.
YSG Solar is a project development vehicle responsible for commoditizing energy infrastructure projects. We work with long-term owners and operators to provide clean energy assets with stable, predictable cash flows.
