Rooftop Solar Digital Platform Taps Into Climate Law Incentives

A software startup backed by the venture capitalist Chamath Palihapitiya is launching a digital platform that allows companies such as mortgage lenders and home-improvement retailers to sell rooftop solar installations directly to consumers. 

The new product adds to a list of clean-energy efforts announced by companies following the passage of the healthcare, climate and tax law, which solidifies tax incentives over the next decade for projects including a 30% credit.
