Poster Synopsis: Vegetation management can be a large and variable cost, impacting the ROI of a project. Unpredictable costs can occur particularly in the transfer of a project from the construction EPC crew to the long-term O&M operator. This poster outlines the areas in which vegetation management costs can add up and planning solutions to keep costs in line. It is relevant for asset owners, managers, EPC and developers. Elements that impact the budget for vegetation management include site design and engineering, site preparation, seeding including seed mix and appropriateness for local biodiversity, water management, and long-term management, labor cost and availability, equipment selection for vegetation management; including consideration of natural trimmers like sheep and the match of mowing equipment to the types of vegetation, the condition of site upon transfer to O&M and view shed and impacts on local communities and biodiversity.
