PV Portal is created by industry veteran, Allie Coleman, in collaboration with an industry collective that believes in easy access to solar information and training as a means to facilitate rapid solar adoption.
We're run by skilled solar professionals with a passion for excellence in user experience, community, and excellence in virtual learning.
Allie jokes that she's been in the solar industry since she was 7, a true solar "old-timer". She grew up working in, and eventually managed Wholesale Solar which served DIY and Installers for nearly 20 years.
Now she heads up community and strategy at PV Platforms, bringing her years of experience to help make solar accessible, affordable, and simple. She believes in power independence in the form of solar + storage as a path towards solar adoption and sustainability.
PVPortal.io is currently under development, and we are working on bringing a wide range of features and resources to our community of solar professionals.
We invite you to list your business in our live installer directory now, and we'll invite you to the community platform upon launch.
We know there are many options for online communities and industry associations in the solar industry.
We believe that our platform offers something unique and valuable: We are committed to creating a community that is supportive and inspiring for our members and offers access to resources with a direct impact on effectively working in this industry.
