Integrating SolarAPP+ with Tyler’s EnerGov™
solution will reduce inspection and approval times for solar panel
permits
Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL) announced today it has
entered into an agreement with the U.S. Department of Energy’s
(DOE’s) National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) to integrate
Tyler’s EnerGov™ Community Development software with the newly
developed SolarAPP+. SolarAPP+, developed by NREL, is designed to
streamline the review and inspection process for the installation
of rooftop solar panels. Integrating this app into EnerGov will
help accelerate and support the availability and expansion of
renewable energy across the United States. It will also provide a
seamless customer experience that will significantly reduce
inspection and approval times for those obtaining permits to
install solar panels on their homes.
“SolarAPP+ has been proven to save time for permitting
departments without negatively impacting inspections in communities
across Arizona and California,” said Dr. Jeffrey Cook, SolarAPP+
project lead, NREL. “The SolarAPP+ team is excited to work with
EnerGov to bring the benefits of SolarAPP+ to every EnerGov
customer nationwide, beginning with San Ramon, California.”
SolarAPP+ is a free online platform that automates the
permitting process for residential rooftop solar. SolarAPP+
standardizes requirements and checks for safety and compliance on
the spot to instantly catch code issues, typos, and errors,
reducing the permitting process by at least five to as many as 20
business days. The result for the consumer is less waiting and a
faster, more cost-effective option to go solar. If every system
installed is delayed unnecessarily by just one day, the cost to the
market will be approximately $4.7 million per day in lost revenue
from electricity sales.
“Tyler is committed to working with NREL to integrate our
solution to help streamline and minimize red tape for rooftop solar
panel permitting,” said Greg Savard, general manager of Tyler’s
Civic Services business unit. “Integrating SolarAPP+ with EnerGov
will allow for customers to easily obtain the necessary permits to
install solar on their homes in one place and will significantly
reduce inspection and approval times for solar panel
permitting.”
The National League of Cities and DOE will hold a free webinar
on July 28, 2021, at 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time for EnerGov customers
to learn more about adopting SolarAPP+. NREL will provide an
overview of the tool, its success in reducing permitting workload,
and will discuss how SolarAPP+ can be easily deployed using
existing permitting software.
