Solaria introduces free design and sales proposal tool to U.S. solar installers

Solar panel manufacturer Solaria today announced the immediate availability of the Solaria Proposal Tool. The sales proposal and design tool is free to its Pro Partner dealer network and Solaria solar panel installers across the United States.

The Solaria Proposal Tool is delivered on the OpenSolar platform, combining an advanced cloud-based solar system design tool that enables dealers to work interactively with their customers with Solaria product content and functionality and high-resolution imagery to create beautiful and powerful designs. Supported on both desktop and mobile devices, the Solaria Proposal Tool supports dealers who wish to work in person or remotely.

“Solaria’s design tool is state-of-the art and is the perfect companion for our PowerXT solar panels,” said Solaria President Howard Wenger. “Now installers can work with their customers remotely to develop and sell compelling solar designs quickly and easily. We’re excited to have our Pro Partners win more business with this innovative proposal and sales tool.”

“The Solaria Proposal Tool on OpenSolar’s platform makes it easier for everyone to harness the power of the sun and, ultimately, make an impact in combatting climate change,” said OpenSolar co-founder Andrew Birch. “OpenSolar is pleased to be collaborating with Solaria to create beautiful layouts and interactive online proposals that expedite remote selling. Customers will appreciate the dynamic designs and detailed options for their property. Designs that are customizable –in real time– to facilitate rapid response. At a time where remote selling is critical to our industry’s continued success, this is an integral addition to installers’ toolkits.”

“We’ve been using the Solaria Proposal Tool to create beautiful interactive proposals and close sales remotely,” said Matt Riege of Coastal Solar, a leading installer in California. “Not only does the Solaria Proposal Tool make the tedious task of laying out panels on the roof simpler, the results are clean and professional. Our proposals now make us look good and showcase why Solaria’s PowerXT panels are the obvious choice in premium solar.”

The Solaria Proposal Tool automatically calculates the impact of shade on solar generation due to nearby objects, taking into account the Solaria panel’s superior performance in partial shading conditions. Developed in collaboration with the OpenSolar team, this customization enables dealers to showcase the Solaria premium panel aesthetics and performance as their customers will actually experience it.
