Aurora

Of the $12 billion spent on residential and commercial solar installations in 2012, almost half were so-called "soft costs." These included customer acquisition, design, permitting, financing and other peripheral activities. Aurora is a new generation cloud-based platform that has the potential to significantly reduce these soft costs by enabling sophisticated solar PV engineering design, supporting operations and facilitating customer acquisition for solar installers, financiers and utilities of any scale. Aurora LogoWe plan to engage in scheduled beta tests with a representative cross-section of potential users and customers to validate our value proposition and business assumptions.
