Distributed Energy Research & Solutions, or EnergySage, has been the recipient of one of 10 Department of Energy (DoE) SunShot Incubator investments worth US$500,000. The funding will be used to develop a web-based PV comparison-shopping platform that aims to deliver pricing transparency and encourage online networking among property owners and solar PV installers.

The product will enable the gathering of multiple price quotes on the part of property owners for proposals from a list of pre-screened solar PV installers’ offers. Quotes are displayed in a standardized format that allows easy comparison of factors, ensuring that consumers get the best possible price for their PV systems.
