eGauge Partners with Generaytor to Turn Solar Monitoring into a Social Experience

BOULDER, Colo., June 24, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- eGauge Systems today announced a partnership with Generaytor.com, an online community that helps people go solar. eGauge power meter users can now freely and easily join the community and connect their live solar performance data to the Generaytor platform. Generaytor members discover fellow solar homeowners nearby, celebrate solar achievements, and gain deeper insights than they have from their own data alone.

Members can invite their friends to try "Virtual Solar," Generaytor's personalized, ongoing solar energy and financial simulation for people considering solar. Virtual Solar users also benefit from the recommendations and experience of solar homeowners in the community. Highly accurate eGauge data will help power the simulations, which update continuously as actual performance data from nearby solar systems flow into the Generaytor platform.

"eGauge is pleased to announce our partnership and integration with Generaytor. Now eGauge users everywhere can benefit from one another's experience and showcase their success producing solar energy," said Greg Greenan, Vice President at eGauge Systems LLC.
