EnergySage Alternative: Public Permit Research for Solar Teams

PermitGrab helps teams research public building-permit activity by market. Sources differ in their dates, jurisdictions, and available fields, so the relevant city page shows those details before you rely on a record for outreach or territory planning.

Frequently asked questions

How is PermitGrab different from a consumer marketplace?

PermitGrab organizes public records rather than consumer enquiries. A permit may describe a project, but it is not proof that an owner is looking for another contractor or ready to buy.

Can I see solar-related permit records?

Where a city publishes the relevant permit type or description, use the city and trade filters to research it. Coverage and categorization vary by source.

Are records exclusive?

No. The underlying building-permit records are public and may be available from the jurisdiction that published them.

Does every market include contact details?

No. Contractor, owner, and contact fields vary by city and record. The market page explains what is currently available.

How should I evaluate a market?

Start with the source date, jurisdiction, record volume, and fields shown for the cities you serve. Use your own outreach and revenue data to decide whether the workflow fits.
