Why Is There Friction Between Solar Sales Reps And Lease Providers?
Contractors and lease providers are often skeptical of one another as Contractors decry what they believe to be arbitrary delays or clawbacks while lease providers think Contractors cut corners to maximize profit. However, drones and mobile apps smooth out this friction—Contractors can affordably collect perfectly accurate data throughout the project’s development, making lease contract reviews and approvals more transparent at each milestone.
How Every Contractor Can Achieve Fast Finance Approvals
The ideal solar workflow for leased projects follows a traditional three-milestone cadence, albeit with a twist. The first change is an inexpensive solution for Contractors to deliver objective accuracy at Milestone 1, meaning both Contractors and TPOs can trust the data. This makes Milestones 2 and 3 more focused on administrative checks before payout rather than subjective reviews based on everyone’s best guesses.
Why Solar Shade Analysis Is So Subjective & How to Fix It
Solar Contractors often rely on potentially outdated or incomplete satellite, aerial, or LiDAR imagery for shade analysis. This results in subjective modeling that is inaccurate, expensive to fix, and in the case of lease agreements, can result in financing delays or cancellations. Leveraging drones with mobile apps in the sales process fixes this friction—real-time, on-site data is objective and delivers completely accurate layouts and production simulations that inform all financing agreements.
