Welcome to this Deep Dive session. Today, we’re taking you on an in-depth exploration of an exciting new development in the solar industry: Sunhub’s Solar Trader platform. If you’re an installer, EPC, distributor, manufacturer, or even a DIY enthusiast, you’ll want to stick around—because what you’re about to see could fundamentally change how solar equipment is sourced, negotiated, and delivered.

SunHub offers three engagement models for suppliers.

Seller-managed is for companies with digital sales teams that want to handle listings, negotiations, and inventory themselves. SunHub-managed lets you provide pricing ranges, minimums, and contract boundaries while SunHub’s team runs negotiations and updates inventory for you. The premier partnership is a strategic alliance: SunHub becomes your e-procurement arm, promoting your listings in newsletters to over thirty thousand subscribers, blog features, and social ad campaigns at cost. You also get fixed-price codes for key customers and integrated logistics support.

Whether you’re a small manufacturer testing online sales or a global distributor wanting scale and visibility, there’s a model to fit your resources and goals.

When you combine real-time listings, chat-driven negotiation, automated contract generation, and flexible engagement models, you get more than a marketplace—you get a true solar trading ecosystem built for transparency, efficiency, and trust.
