HERZLIYA, ISRAEL (June 6, 2018) – SolarEdge Technologies, Inc. (“SolarEdge”) (NASDAQ: SEDG), a global leader in smart energy, is launching its new Designer tool to enable faster, easier planning of solar energy system designs.

The new web-based tool with an intuitive graphical interface helps installers lower PV design costs and increase conversion rates by creating compelling customer proposals.

The free Designer tool is part of SolarEdge’s comprehensive vision to support the entire PV process, including design, quotation, installation, and monitoring in one, end-to-end, cloud-based platform.

Developed with SolarEdge’s expertise in PV software, and using input from SolarEdge’s global community of PV professionals, Designer streamlines SolarEdge system design to create a value-driven solution.
