Community Solar RIsing: part 3
LEARNING FROM THE SOLAR FARM FIELDS
Community Solar is happening now and the market is ramping up quickly as new businesses take the initiative to be first or early entrants into markets across North America. Hansen is fortunate to partner with some of these new businesses that work in the “solar farm fields” as they build their businesses and acquire new customers.
If you missed the previous Community Solar Rising POV Papers, here is a brief summary. In Community Solar Rising Part 1 we explored the market opportunity in North America and advice for providers interested in entering the market, while in Community Solar Rising Part 2, we covered the five key steps in the customer acquisition process and the operational challenges associated with them.
In Community Solar Rising Part 3, Hansen Community Solar expert, Shiva Gowrinathan, provides his perspective on the critical ingredients for success in the development of operations to support Community Solar businesses. He shares his experiences in completing several Community Solar implementations on behalf of suppliers and utilities and delves into detail on the common elements that contribute to business and operational systems and platforms that can set Community Solar providers up for success as they move forward in the market.
