Finance Solar and Energy Efficiency Projects with Edge
Edge specializes in solar and energy efficiency financing, giving contractors a dedicated lending partner for clean energy installations. The SubcontractorHub integration connects Edge's approval engine and funding workflow to your project pipeline.
What Connects Between Edge and SubcontractorHub
The specific data flows that eliminate double entry and keep both systems current without extra work from your team.
Credit Application and Approval
SubcontractorHub submits customer and project data to Edge and surfaces the credit decision — approved amount, qualifying terms, and monthly payment estimates — directly on the job record so reps can close without switching platforms.
Energy Efficiency Product Sync
Edge's eligible project categories (solar PV, insulation, windows, HVAC efficiency upgrades) and corresponding loan products sync into SubcontractorHub so estimators apply the correct financing product to each project type.
Homeowner Agreement Status
Edge loan document execution status syncs to the SubcontractorHub job record — sent, viewed, signed — so your office team advances jobs through the pipeline the moment documents are complete.
Funding Status
Edge's contractor payment release notification syncs to SubcontractorHub, enabling automated downstream workflows such as invoice generation or installation crew scheduling triggered by confirmed funding.

Who Uses the Edge Integration
Solar Installer Adds Energy Efficiency Upsell
A solar company whose average ticket is $28,000 adds attic insulation and air sealing as an efficiency bundle financed through Edge. The bundle adds $4,500 to the average job — improving both homeowner savings and contractor margin — and Edge's energy efficiency product covers the insulation work alongside the solar array.
HVAC Contractor Finances High-Efficiency Equipment
An HVAC contractor selling a $14,000 heat pump plus smart thermostat system uses Edge's energy efficiency loan product, which is designed for exactly this category of project. The monthly payment at Edge's terms is presented in the SubcontractorHub estimate alongside the efficiency savings projection.
Multi-Trade Contractor Uses Edge for Non-Solar Green Jobs
A home performance contractor offers weatherization, insulation, and HVAC services — none of which qualify for solar-specific lenders. Edge's energy efficiency focus makes it the right fit, and SubcontractorHub automatically routes these job types to Edge rather than a solar-specialist lender.
Project Manager Tracks Funding Across Energy Retrofit Portfolio
A contractor managing 25 simultaneous energy efficiency retrofit projects uses SubcontractorHub's job board filtered by Edge status to track which projects are pending completion sign-off, which are funded, and which have stalled documents — replacing a manual tracking spreadsheet.
Common Questions About the Edge Integration
What types of projects does Edge finance beyond solar?
Edge's product covers energy efficiency improvements including solar PV, battery storage, high-efficiency HVAC systems, insulation, air sealing, windows, and in some markets, electric vehicle charging equipment. This makes Edge a strong option for contractors offering whole-home energy performance improvements.
What are Edge's typical loan terms and APR range?
Edge offers loan terms typically ranging from 5 to 25 years depending on project type and size. APRs vary by creditworthiness and product — energy efficiency products may carry slightly different rate structures than solar-specific loans. Exact rates are defined in your dealer agreement.
How fast does Edge fund contractors after project completion?
Edge's target contractor funding timeline is typically 2–5 business days after the homeowner signs the completion confirmation and required documentation is submitted. Funding speed can improve with dealer tenure and volume.
Does Edge offer a soft-pull pre-qualification?
Edge offers pre-qualification tools that minimize hard credit pull impact early in the sales process. Confirm with your Edge account manager which pre-qual steps are soft vs. hard pull for your specific dealer product access.
Can Edge finance a solar-plus-storage-plus-HVAC bundle in one loan?
In many cases, yes — Edge's energy efficiency focus means it's designed to cover multiple improvement categories in a single financed project. The total project scope and amount must fall within your customer's approved credit limit and Edge's bundling eligibility rules, which are defined in your dealer agreement.
