Company mission
To accelerate the adoption of solar and renewable energy globally.
Our take
OpenSolar is a software company offering a free, all-in-one platform for solar installers, helping them streamline design, sales and project management.
Alongside its design tools, it recently introduced CashFlow, a payment system tailored to the solar industry. This tool automates invoicing, payment reminders, and reconciliation while cutting transaction fees by up to 20% compared to traditional providers.
Currently in open beta in the US, OpenSolar has big plans to start operating in the UK, Australia and Europe as well as a global rollout in 2025.

Company values
- Mission Driven: We're here to accelerate the adoption of solar for a world powered by sunshine by 2050.
- User-Centric: It's said that the most spoken word in the English language is "and". At OpenSolar it's "Pro", our term for all professional installers, whose experience we obsess over
- Open and Honest: We believe that being transparent is the best way to build trust and long-lasting relationships
- Solve with Design: When you focus on working smart, great things happen. We always strive to solve problems through deliberate and careful thought, and great perspectives from great people
- Keep it Simple: Simple trumps complex every time. We always look to remove complexity or even better, make things simple from the start
