Confidence in Renewable Energy Design Under Pressure

I was recently working on a solar array project with a tight deadline, and it got me thinking: how does confidence shape the choices we make in renewable energy design? When you’re racing against the clock, it’s easy to second-guess yourself or stick to familiar solutions. But I’ve noticed that a bit of self-assurance can help in weighing risks, like choosing between proven tech and newer, more efficient options. Has anyone else found that their level of confidence affects their design decisions, especially under time constraints? What’s helped you stay decisive without cutting corners?
