Distributed Sun Launches SRECx™ Free to Distributed Solar Network™ Members

WASHINGTON, Sept. 21, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Distributed Sun LLC (D-SUN), a DC-based, commercial solar developer, owner and operator, and project platform and investment provider, today announced the official launch and release of SRECx™, Distributed Sun's (D-SUN) industry-leading Solar Renewable Energy Credit (SREC) market tracking tool.  This sophisticated and easy-to-use policy intelligence service organizes and delivers the best and most current SREC market exchange data PLUS Performance Based Incentive (PBI) and Feed-in-Tariff (FIT) program data into a single, usable framework.  Its highly readable, actionable format empowers users to readily grasp complex credit and policy market factors, and explore business decisions to monetize credit, incentive and tariff values while minimizing project risks in the context of the broader, multi-year regulatory and compliance markets. 

D-SUN is now offering free licenses and special usage rights for its advanced policy analysis to select members of its Distributed Solar Network™ - which today counts over 50 of the nation's most experienced and qualified installers, developers and integrators among its network partners.  Since the network launched in Q2 of this year, members have submitted nearly 600 MWs of commercial projects from 24 policy jurisdictions to D-SUN's finance screening and selection. 

"Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery," says Jeff Weiss , CFO and co-founder of Distributed Sun.  "After seeing well-known research and publishing firms and competitors adopt our model for policy incentive reporting and analysis, we decided it was time to formally and freely release our powerful SRECx capabilities to network members." 

Unlike limiting alternatives for this analysis, D-SUN combines actionable policy guidance with project selection and the certainty of finance across all major policy incentive programs, and is not limited solely to policy economics within the handful of SREC markets.  While some updates for SREC-only information can be obtained by occasional reports from sources at prices as high as $6,000 or more, this data is almost immediately obsolete as other services require a share of your project earnings before providing access to this critical data.  SRECx is provided free of charge to qualified members.  Updated monthly, the guide is paired with diligence and finance services that deliver the only financial results that matter – getting your commercial project funded and built.

SRECx™ provides a systematic, intuitive, and always up-to-date tool for selection, underwriting and finance decision-making.  D-SUN's expert policy and finance teams process a high-volume of market data for you, and translate this information into an easy-to-use, no cost, published reference and decision-making guide.
