Utility-scale solar projects are large-scale solar power plants that generate electricity from solar energy and sell it to wholesale utility buyers or markets.

Distributed solar PV systems are small-scale solar power systems that generate electricity from solar energy and use it on-site or export it to the grid. These systems are typically rooftop-mounted or integrated into buildings or structures and have a capacity of less than 5 MW.
