The solar permitting process can be challenging for homeowners and installers alike. Complex regulations from Authority Having Jurisdictions (AHJs) and the solar industry\u2019s heavy reliance on manual data entry contribute to significant delays \u2014 and ultimately costs \u2014 to solar installations. Integrating Lyra into the Aurora Solar platform will help alleviate these challenges by providing instant, permit-ready proposals, backed by Aurora\u2019s industry-leading accuracy. The integration will empower solar installers to deliver projects faster, with lower costs, to enable more solar installations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Lyra\u2019s advanced automation software for plan sets is the solution the solar industry needs to alleviate a key homeowner pain point \u2014 the often agonizing local permitting process \u2013 and cut down on wasted time and energy for solar professionals,” said Chris Hopper, CEO at Aurora Solar. “We\u2019re proud to be the most trusted and accurate solar sales and design tool, with 80% of the top U.S. installers relying on our platform. Our intention is to be the market leader in U.S. residential plan set services and automation; the acquisition of Lyra significantly accelerates our ability to achieve this goal.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
