A LinkedIn post from Raptor Maps indicates the company plans to release its 2026 Global Solar Report next week, drawing on what it describes as its largest dataset to date. The post cites analysis of 373 GWdc of cumulative data, including 57.5 GWdc of advanced inspections, to address performance and risk trends in utility-scale solar.

According to the post, the report will examine how power loss in solar assets has evolved over time and the factors driving these changes. It will also explore the impact of robotics on plant performance, operations, and risk management, alongside an assessment of risk types and magnitudes as reflected in insurance claim data.
For investors, the forthcoming report suggests Raptor Maps is positioning itself as a data and analytics authority in solar asset performance and reliability. If widely used by asset owners, insurers, and operators, such benchmarking could strengthen the company’s role in the solar value chain and support demand for its inspection and analytics services.
The focus on robotics and insurance-related risks may also signal growing opportunities in predictive maintenance, risk pricing, and operational optimization across global solar portfolios. Greater visibility into degradation and loss patterns could influence capital allocation, underwriting standards, and long-term return expectations for solar infrastructure investments.
