Even as policy uncertainty continues to challenge the renewable #energy space, the #solar industry’s determination hasn’t dimmed.

Aurora Solar will never stop advocating for a stronger, more resilient solar economy. We’ll keep pushing forward with you. ☀️ Link to the article is below in our comments.

System design has long been a critical point of differentiation for many solar installers, though some prioritize quicker, cheaper installs by relying on more standardized designs. By now, many solar experts agree that the era of cookie cutter solar has come to a close. Question is: Did it ever start? According to Aurora Solar's Fox Swim, system design has been a major area for innovation since the industry’s early days and the complexity of the design process is only growing as rising tariffs, time-of-use rates, demand charges and export limits are pushing designers to think outside the box. Here's her argument: https://lnkd.in/gMyGKzWw

We’re proud to see our co-founder Christopher Hopper featured in The Washington Post coverage on the evolving U.S. #solar landscape. Chris shares insight into how new trade & policy measures could impact solar deployment & #supplychains: “How much does a screw matter versus the glass covering the solar panel versus the aluminum casing? How do you weigh that...to come up with 'what does it mean?' It actually gets really complex, real fast.” As the industry navigates these complexities, Aurora Solar remains committed to empowering solar professionals with the tools they need to design and deploy systems efficiently.
