  • Solar customer acquisition and solar lead qualification
    Patent number: 10552856
    Abstract: According to various aspects of the subject technology, systems and methods for qualifying solar leads are described. In certain implementations, data about utility customers and/or other information are used to identify high-quality solar leads, thus reducing the amount of extraneous work for installers and resulting in an overall reduction of the total cost of solar implementations.
    Type: Grant

  • BEHAVIORAL DEMAND RESPONSE USING SUBSTATION METER DATA
    Publication number: 20160140586
    Abstract: Methods and systems for using substation meter data in one or more applications related behavior demand response are provided. In one example application, substation meter data may be used to assess the efficacy of a demand response campaign. In a second example application, substation meter data may be used to provide comparisons of demand response performances of neighborhoods. These applications may be applied independently or in combination.
