Yeah it's cool to hear them talking about it transparently, issues that these things face and the potential that it has. The second part has just started also.  

Edit- sorry was just the first session repeating, I thought that was a quick lunch!  This is the link to the second part starting soon.

Nick what would a low to high end estimate of network growth be for 2017 for Slr

tough to say, but I am personally targetting 20-50k users. that means we need to get infront of 200-300k.  with a 3-6 months sales cycle that means hitting it hard after copay is out. we have one 200k platform working on an NDA and @francois probably has 50 monitoring companies in his back pocket that range from thousands to 10's of thousands. We have contacts at solarcity etc. but haven't reached out yet as our UX is sub-par for their customers.  with Copay and web wallet, I think that is largely solved.  This doesn't include proof concept stuff like solarchange is working on in Cyprus and attempts to reach out to enphase's enlighten platform.  If people have platforms we should target let us know.  We also have people in China and other areas wanting to sign up as affiliate so I personally think its more a matter of when than if we reach 20-50k and then.....more.  there are 7m estimated solar producing facilities out there growing 30-40% annually."
