Some exciting new features since our March update, including:

• Cheaper Home Batteries Program
• BESS (Battery) Site Plans
• Lead Summaries
• Air-conditioners
• Replacement Costs

Let’s get into it!

Cheaper Home Batteries Program

Pylon has added provisional support for the Cheaper Home Batteries Program. Once enabled, we will automatically add an additional 9.3 STCs per usable kWh to your Projects.

For a 13.5 kWh battery you’ll earn 125 extra STCs automatically.

Disclaimer warning: Calculations are based on current market knowledge and are not guaranteed. Please consider carefully and use at your own risk.

You can now enable the Cheaper Home Batteries Program for all your new Projects by default in your Solar Design Settings: For all existing Projects, you can enable the feature in the Settings Tab of each Design:

As more details about this program become available, we will update our implementation. Read more in our detailed Help Guide.

BESS (Battery) Site Plans

We also now have a new Floor Plan Tool and support for BESS (Battery) Site Plans.

Using the Floor Plan Tool, you can easily mark out battery locations, key room features and distances to all important features.

And similar to our PV (Solar) Site Plan, you can download a PDF copy to print out for the customers’ meter box.

CRM Lead Summaries

We’re super excited to introduce AI powered Lead Summaries!

Have you ever had that lead go through all the possible solutions with your sales team, only for them to disappear after weeks of discussions?

Then, seemingly out of nowhere, for them to re-appear months later?

This is the exact tool for you!

Instead of reading through every email conversation one by one, get a quick refresher summary via our Lead Summaries. Hopefully, this can save you tonnes of time, and close some extra deals. 💪

Air-conditioners

Air-conditioners are now supported as a Component. You can now add Air-cons to your Projects.

Eligible Air-con units (Indoor + Outdoor) eligible for PRCs in NSW and VEECs in Victoria.

Component replacement costs

You can now factor Component replacement costs into your solar and battery storage systems. By enabling this feature, Pylon will automatically include the replacement cost—set as a percentage of todays price—in the financial calculations and ROI of each Project.
