CHARLESTON, S.C., Jan. 11, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Palmetto, the leading clean energy technology company, today announced strong results of its new Clean Energy Operating Platform that is revolutionizing the end-to-end consumer solar journey, creating operational efficiencies, allowing sales partners to achieve their growth potential, and most importantly, delivering the leading industry customer experience with a 70+ Net Promoter Score.
