Solar Welcome Experience - How Solar Works

The Solar Welcome Experience - How Solar Works widget presents a collection of insights and graphics to help customers understand their positive and negative energy use, and interpret their solar bills. It is displayed for customers who navigate to the Electricity view in the Data Browser for the first time after starting a solar program.

On subsequent visits, the full-page experience is hidden, and customers can find the widget by clicking the Learn How Solar Billing Works menu beneath the Data Browser.

Embedding Guidelines

Widget Name: widget-how-solar-billing-works

• The Solar Welcome Experience - How Solar Billing Works widget is designed to be embedded on the same page as the Data Browser. Keep in mind that it appears as a full-page experience the first time a customer browses to the Electricity view of the Data Browser after starting a solar program. On subsequent visits, the widget appears beneath the Data Browser within a collapsible menu. When the menu is expanded, the widget takes up the same width as the Data Browser and pushes down any content that is located beneath it.

• Consider pairing the Solar Welcome Experience - How Solar Works widget with the Solar Savings Insight. If you do this, make sure that Solar Savings appears above Solar Welcome Experience - How Solar Works, since it is a natural transition for customers to see their solar savings insights followed by an explanation of those insights.

• The How Solar Works widget is often paired with the Green Button widget so that both appear below the Data Browser. It is recommended that you embed How Solar Works to appear inline with Green Button.
