Wall Street, Main Street Joining Forces
- Distributed solar power on the march
toward grid parity
- Triple bottom line is mainstreaming out
tax-break, subsidy model
- People, Planet, Profit social mission
remains, but, in business, what matters gets measured
SLIDE 4
Renewable energy now matters to business
- Projects increasing, installed system costs decreasing
- Finance and pricing models maturing
- Dealflow accelerating
- From coal-fired to clean-tech, “old school” financial
institutions are now “early adopters” crossing the chasm to a new industrial infrastructure, and establishing a new economic standards and metrics
SLIDE 5
To achieve market implementation, global energy industry needs: Software monitoring, measurement and billing solutions to monetize solar power and maximize investment returns
SLIDE 6
Why Measure?
Business Process Integration to provide
comparisons of actual production, demand and financial performance
Compare Multiple Sites and compare each
site’s cost and performance
Develop Better ROI to show how complicated
investments deliver to the bottom line over time
SLIDE 7
Multi Site Real-Time Production
To Stay Competitive, You Need Vision into All Assets
SLIDE 8
To Stay Competitive, You Need Cost and Production Analysis
SLIDE 9
Single-site device status and activity Current production and production estimates Open alerts and status for all selected sites
To Stay Competitive, You Need Real-Time Data
SLIDE 10

To Stay Competitive, You Need Advanced Reporting
More states are adding
reporting requirements
Verify utility-provided
production data to ensure accurate credits and compensation
Monitoring data can be
used to research and compare technologies

- Dealflow and pricing breakthroughs are creating the pick and
shovel solar “gold rush” opportunities
- Demand is rising for monitoring, measurement and
monetization tools to establish the best-practice standards in distributing solar power
- As nations and business turn sunshine into sustainable
energy, economic engine, cloud-based PV monitoring software is the electric meter for a new energy economy
The Future of Commercial Solar
