Insight Quantix Analytical Notes

Decision-grade techno-economic analysis (TEA) and life cycle assessment (LCA) for clean energy systems.

What These Notes Are

Insight Quantix publishes independent analytical work that answers decision-framed questions for founders, investors, and senior engineers evaluating clean energy projects. Each note:

• Identifies parity thresholds (when does option A beat option B?)
• Maps cliff risks (policy tiers, eligibility cutoffs, compliance constraints)
• Compresses to 1-3 dominant drivers (not sensitivity sprawl)
• Provides actionable decision rules (if X and Y, then proceed)

These are not blog posts. They compete with DOE reports, NREL TEAs, and consulting whitepapers.

Methodology

All notes apply the IQ Parity & Cliff Method:

1. Define the decision (one sentence, one owner, one deadline)
2. Lock boundary conditions (geography, system, time, expertise scope)
3. Build parity surfaces (not point estimates)
4. Map cliff risks (policy tiers, eligibility thresholds)
5. Compress to dominant drivers (1-3 variables that flip the decision)
6. Output decision rules (if/then thresholds)
