“We are thrilled to begin providing loans with Spanish documentation to Spanish-speaking homeowners nationwide,” said Sunlight Financial Chief Executive Officer Matt Potere. “The addition of Spanish-language capabilities to our Orange® technology platform will help our solar and home improvement contractors reach a broader group of potential customers to grow their businesses and support the further expansion of solar, specifically, to underserved communities that have had difficulty accessing the market because of language barriers.”

  • Homeowner Access to Loan Information – A one-stop portal updates borrowers on progress toward their solar installation and loan details
