Finance Integration Improvements
- Added a widget to surface finance options when customers are viewing online proposals on OpenSolar.

- Fixed bug that prevented refreshing Phoenix Payment Options after rate changes.
- Fixed the bug “Cannot read properties of undefined (reading uuid)” which occurred when a Plenti transaction was been created and the system with that Plenti option was been marked hidden from the customer.
Supporting NEM 3.0 [US Only]
- NEM 3.0 is the new version of the net energy metering policy that has been approved by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) on December 15, 2022. The policy applies to utility customers of
- Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E),
- Southern California Edison (SCE)
- San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E)
- Under NEM 3.0, the export rate for residential solar systems will be based on the “Avoided Cost Calculator” instead of the retail rate.
- We have uploaded the NEM3.0 utility tariff rates to our global tariff database so that pros can start designing and experimenting with systems under NEM3.0.
- We have also added a new duplicate system option to allow pros to duplicate a system with the corresponding NEM3.0 or NEM2.0 rate applied for that territory. This will NOT work with any custom tariff rates, the pro must use OpenSolar’s global utility rates.
- Updated default utility inflation rate from 3% to 4% for US orgs for any new Setbacks and Design Settings configurations created in Control.
