Energy Toolbase (ETB), a prominent software solutions provider for solar and energy storage projects, has announced a strategic collaboration with Station A, a leading clean energy marketplace. This partnership aims to empower commercial and industrial enterprises across the United States to efficiently deploy solar-plus-storage projects on their facilities.
Energy Toolbase’s renowned ETB Developer platform, recognized within the commercial and industrial project developer community, facilitates the financial analysis of solar-plus-storage projects. It provides comprehensive economic analysis proposals and efficient energy management system controls and operational monitoring. In May 2023, Energy Toolbase expanded its services with the launch of its Enterprise Services consulting division, allowing commercial customers and project developers to leverage ETB’s expertise for system design and proposal development.
The newly formed alliance between Energy Toolbase and Station A marks a significant milestone in the clean energy sector. The partnership progresses projects from the analysis stage to procurement and contracting, providing clients with the ability to acquire competitive installation quotes for their specific projects. Station A, boasting one of the largest provider audiences in the nation with over 2,500 active provider accounts, facilitates the listing of clean energy projects on its marketplace, allowing clients to receive competitive offers.
Station A’s marketplace has gained acclaim for generating highly competitive offers, evident in its average bid spread – the difference between the highest and lowest bids – standing at $1.1 million. This platform enables companies to access a pool of qualified regional installers, streamlining the process of securing optimal project bids.
Justin Hammond, manager of the Enterprise Services team at Energy Toolbase, expressed excitement about the collaboration, stating, “We’re excited to now offer our consulting clients the ability to work with Station A to get qualified regional installers to bid on their optimally designed project in their marketplace,” said Justin Hammond, manager of the Enterprise Services team. “This allows commercial customers to competitively contract for the most economically optimal project.”
This collaboration between Energy Toolbase and Station A is expected to catalyze the widespread adoption of solar-plus-storage solutions in the commercial sector, marking a significant stride towards a cleaner and more sustainable energy future.
