Aurora Solar Adds Integrated Storage Modeling to HelioScope, Uniting Commercial Solar Design, Storage, and Financial Analysis in One Solution

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jun 16, 2026--

Aurora Solar, the leading global platform for solar sales and design, today announced the addition of integrated storage modeling to HelioScope. This new feature empowers users to size storage, model performance, and run the financial case in the same place they design the system.

What once required three tools — design, storage modeling, financials — now happens in one solution, from layout to a lender-ready output developers can take straight into financing. When a client asks what a bigger battery does to the economics, the answer takes minutes, not days.

"The solar market is being tested right now, and the companies that come out ahead will be the ones that make their teams faster and their numbers more defensible," said Sudeep Deshpande, COO at Aurora Solar. "That's exactly where we're investing. Storage is becoming the heart of the commercial deal, and we're bringing design, storage, and financials into one place so developers can move at the speed this market demands."

The addition of integrated storage modeling to HelioScope advances Aurora's new shape of solar vision: making solar more efficient, resilient, and adaptable to policy change.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — A sprinkler malfunctioned at Gillette Stadium during halftime of the World Cup match between Iraq and Norway on Tuesday.

A large stream of water spurted for several seconds from a sprinkler on the edge of the area in front of the goal in which Erling Haaland scored twice to give Norway a 2-1 halftime lead.

The rest of the sprinklers appeared to work as expected, but all of them had to be turned off to prevent further damage from the malfunctioning one.

The grass appeared discolored around the offending sprinkler head as groundskeepers ran out to attend to the problem. Staff sloshed through the area with buckets and tools to disperse the water to other parts of the field.

The affected part of the field appeared to be back to normal by the time the players emerged for the second half.
