"The solar industry in the U.S. has come a long way but as an industry we need to move the conversation beyond pounds of steel and start helping customers better understand the intrinsic value of their long-term assets," said Michael Maulick, president and CEO of SunLink. "There are direct parallels to the tech industry where the integration of disruptive technologies like artificial intelligence, IoT and cybersecurity have created breakthroughs to accelerate the industry. By creating smart, intelligent energy that monetizes energy generation we can make the transition from solar being a niche energy player to the countrys dominant clean energy driver."

At the Annual SEIA Codes & Standards Workshop to be held on Wednesday, SunLink Vice President of Engineering Rob Ward will present his views on how well the industrys codes and standards are keeping up with increasingly complex and larger scale solar projects on a panel titled "Solar Codes and Standards: The Solar Report Card," at 1:10 pm at Lagoon H. Later during the same workshop, SunLink Structural Engineering Manager Lauren Busby Ahsler will speak on "Market Opportunities" at 3:45 pm which will examine the market opportunities that codes and standards work can help secure and what additional collaboration the industry can provide to ensure continued solar deployment growth.
