Evergreen Initiatives

When we are thinking about how to set priorities, there are a few initiatives that we feel are important to always keep near the top of the list.

AHJ/Utility acceptance

  • Maintaining compliance with all nationally-adopted codes and standards

  • Increasing support for localized permitting requirements

  • Increasing support for localized utility requirements

Support for top products

Support for products in the marketplace getting significant traction. We likely cannot support every product, so we prioritize products with more demand.

Ease of use

We are always looking for ways to improve everyone's experience

Future Priorities

These are items that are on our radar but are lower in priority due to demand.

  • Ground mounts

  • Full support for tilt-up mounting on flat roofs

  • Ballasted mounting

  • Shade analysis
