You might think of community solar as a “Groupon for your energy bill” - you get discounted access to clean energy without needing to install solar panels, and leverage the buying power of a group purchase!
Aviv Shalgi, CEO and co-founder of Solar Simplified, is dedicated to expanding the reach of community solar. Solar Simplified acts as an aggregator, linking subscribers with solar project developers. And as the industry grows, the role of aggregator plays an ever-increasing part in helping folks who ordinarily can’t go solar (shade issues, don’t own your home, or a myriad of other reasons) plug into the sun…virtually. How is Aviv helping change how solar is built, bought and bartered?
In this episode, you’ll discover:
• The vital role of clear communication and building trust in advancing community solar
• The need for better risk-sharing models and industry standards
• How aggregators ensure the success and growth of community solar
• How aggregators manage billing protocols with utilities and ensure regulatory compliance
Learn how Solar Simplified fills the gap by connecting customers to community solar projects.
