“As a solar developer, I was burdened with inability to access the tools I needed to assess and develop solar projects as quickly as my capital partners required. This is why we built Sunsyte. Our platform revolutionizes the way the solar industry evaluates projects for capital investment and value capture for manufacturers and real estate and private equity partners. We turn data into visual and analyzed information that fully informs the industry to make fast and accurate capital deployment decisions.”
