Distribution intelligence company ProEnergy Supply (PES) has officially launched its proprietary and AI-driven transactional gateway, bridging the gap between solar energy system design and distributors’ ERP systems. By partnering with OpenSolar, PES enables distributors to sell equipment directly within the new OpenSolar “Shop” platform.
“Live” inventory can be viewed and purchased now by more than 28,000 active solar professionals at the exact moment they are designing solar energy systems or viewing the automatically calculated bill of materials of a system sold.
“We’re not asking distributors to change the way they operate,” said Brian C. Boguess, CRO and co-founder of ProEnergy Supply. “Instead, we give them a digital storefront (transactional marketing) within the tools their customers already use every day. We didn’t build PES to add more work to your plate. We built it to reduce your fixed costs associated with sales and to reduce customer acquisition costs.”
“I have helped build some of the largest solar distributors in the industry, and I have seen firsthand the lost revenue because distributors are not present when the solar professional makes a purchasing decision,” said Christian Siebens, CEO and co-founder of ProEnergy Supply. “PES puts you in front of the solar professional during system design, not days later. To me, that’s the biggest difference between getting the sale and hoping for a callback.”
PES is currently launching solar and electricity distributors in key states, followed by a national rollout. Distributors using Epicor P21, Eclipse, SAP, Infor or other ERP systems are encouraged to request territorial priority immediately. PES partnered distributors will go live on the OpenSolar Shop in March 2026. Those interested in one demo you can register online.
“The strategic partnership between PES and OpenSolar tech stack will give distributors a huge boost to their bottom line,” said Andy Rose, Global Head of Commercial for OpenSolar. “With 28,000 solar professionals designing in our latest release with PRO Shop functionality, PES delivers credit-guaranteed sales orders directly into a distributor’s ERP sales queue, without the associated traditional fixed costs.”
