Goals
Create systems and materials necessary to populate a comprehensive and reliable database of utility rates and rate structures.C f d l h Create user interfaces and materials that are most appropriate to different user groups.
P l t d k t th d t b f tilit t d Populate and keep current the database of utility rates and rate structures with proper quality control measures.
Publicize the database and demonstrate its usefulness at solar Publicize the database and demonstrate its usefulness at solar industry events, through social media, and via other means as appropriate.pp p
Plan to maintain database for at least 5 years after grant funding ends.
