Third Party Owners (TPOs) are revolutionizing solar adoption by leasing systems to homeowners and businesses, but their success hinges on efficient supply chains. At 3PLX, we’re the logistics backbone for TPOs, streamlining the flow of solar panels, inverters, and components to support rapid, cost-effective deployments across residential and commercial markets.
Supply chain bottlenecks—delays in panel shipments, inverter shortages, or racking mismatches—can stall TPO projects, raising costs and eroding customer trust. 3PLX tackles these challenges with:
- Real-Time Inventory Management: AI-driven tracking ensures components are available when and where TPOs need them.
- Strategic Warehousing: Regional hubs cut shipping times, like reducing delivery from 3 weeks to 5 days for a Florida TPO.
- Vendor Coordination: We align manufacturers and installers, ensuring Domestic Content compliance for IRA tax credits.
In a recent case, a TPO leasing 50 kW systems to a chain of small businesses faced a 30-day delay due to inverter shortages. 3PLX rerouted stock from a nearby hub, delivering in 48 hours—keeping the project on track and saving $25,000 in lost lease revenue.
“Logistics is the unsung hero of solar leasing,” said JR Mejia, CEO of 3PLX. “By streamlining supply chains, we help TPOs deploy faster and cheaper, making solar a no-brainer for customers. Reach us at 561.800.3559 or info@3plx.net to learn more.”
For residential leases, we’ve cut lead times by 20%, dropping a typical 6 kW system rollout from 6 weeks to under 5. For commercial projects, like a 200 kW install, our logistics shaved $50,000 off costs by optimizing freight and staging. This efficiency lets TPOs offer lower lease rates—think $80/month vs. $100/month for homes—while boosting installer margins.
As solar demand grows, 3PLX’s role ensures TPOs can scale seamlessly, delivering clean energy without the headaches of supply chain chaos.
