The difference in scenario results when using the sigmoidal deployment schedule as compared to the linear deployment scenario. The energy demands for several scenarios are higher (and therefore lower energy balance) due to the higher deployment of modules early (i.e. less efficient and less recycled content). Two scenarios have slightly higher lifecycle wastes, similarly due to early deployment of less recyclable modules. These results are within uncertainty and overall comparative trends are not changed.
