FAQs

1) Where do I start if there are no designs?
You’ll see an empty state. Click Create Design (or Request Expert Services).

2) What’s the difference between PV, PV+ESS, and ESS-only?
PV = solar only; PV+ESS = solar + battery; ESS-only = battery only (no PV layout).

3) Why did it skip Studio after I created a design?
You chose ESS-only. That goes straight to Battery by design.

4) How do I quickly share a proposal?
Open Proposal on your design, pick Web, click Share, and send the link.

5) Can I download a file version of the proposal?
Yes — in Proposal, click Download next to the document proposal.

Rename with clear labels (type, size, rev). Mark the current pick as Primary.

7) Where can I remove a design we don’t need?
If allowed, the Delete option is in the Info area for that design.
