Designing and installation quoting for solar energy systems
First Claim
1. A method for improving the designing of solar energy systems by a computing system, comprising:
- calculating and pre-caching, by a processor of a solar energy system design computing system, a plurality of solar energy system designs for a group of properties;
receiving, by the processor of the solar energy system design computing system, at least one of lead data or inquiry data related to a property of the group of properties;
querying, by the processor of the solar energy system design computing system, predefined data related to the property using the received at least one of lead data or inquiry data;
evaluating, by the processor of the solar energy system design computing system, the queried predefined data and one or more of the plurality of solar energy system designs to qualify the received at least one of lead data or inquiry data; and
performing, by the processor of the solar energy system design computing system, at least one action related to the solar energy systems based on the evaluation of the queried predefined data and the one or more of the plurality of solar energy system designs using the received at least one of lead data or inquiry data.
