Publishing Principles

Last Updated: May 16, 2025

At Energy Toolbase, we are committed to delivering reliable, well-researched, timely and insightful content that empowers the clean energy community. Our publishing mission is rooted in providing clarity and confidence in an evolving solar and energy storage landscape— battery energy storage systems, utility rate structures, and energy policy.
 
We focus on creating educational, data-driven articles, white papers, webinars, and updates that serve solar and energy storage developers, consultants, installers, commercial & industrial customers, utilities, and policy influencers. Whether you’re evaluating project economics, navigating utility tariffs, or assessing the impact of programs like NEM 3.0, our content aims to provide the tools and insights you need to make informed decisions.
 

What We Write About

We cover a wide range of clean energy topics, including:
 
  • Energy storage systems, technologies, and integration
  • Solar and energy storage project modeling and optimization
  • Utility rate analysis, tariff structures, and avoided cost
  • Clean energy policy, incentives, and regulatory changes
  • Energy management software and financial tools
 
Our content is always reviewed by internal subject matter experts and grounded in the real-world applications of our software platform. We do not accept paid placements, and our editorial direction is guided by relevance, value to our readers, and alignment with our mission to simplify and accelerate the adoption of clean energy.

Whether you’re a seasoned energy expert or just beginning to explore energy storage solutions, Energy Toolbase is your trusted resource for solar and energy storage insights.
 

Quality Standards

At Energy Toolbase, we hold ourselves to the highest standards of editorial accuracy, integrity, and transparency. We recognize the importance of publishing factual, up-to-date information—especially in the fast-changing solar and energy storage sector where technical accuracy and policy clarity are essential.

We are committed to correcting mistakes promptly and transparently, regardless of how minor or significant they may be. The following outlines our process for identifying, correcting, and communicating any errors in our published content:

1. Error Identification and Reporting

We welcome feedback from our readers and partners. If you believe you’ve found an error—whether it’s a factual inaccuracy, misquote, outdated data, or typographical mistake—please contact us directly at contact@energytoolbase.com. Each report is taken seriously and reviewed thoroughly.

2. Internal Review Process

Once a potential error is flagged, it is immediately escalated to our editorial and subject matter expert teams. We evaluate the nature and impact of the issue, referencing authoritative sources and internal documentation to validate the correction.

3. Correction Implementation

When a factual error is confirmed:

  • The content is updated to reflect the accurate information.
  • A correction notice or editor’s note is added to the article, clearly stating the nature of the change and the date it was made.
  • For minor edits (e.g., grammar or style) that do not alter the meaning, updates may be made silently, though we still maintain a log internally.

 

4. Transparency and Accountability

In cases where an error may have impacted a broader audience, business decision, or public understanding (e.g., misreporting a utility rate, policy detail, or financial metric), we may also:

  • Include a dedicated update section or addendum.

  • Notify our readers through our newsletter or platform-specific update (e.g., blog notice or email follow-up).

  • Review and update any associated downloadable materials or linked resources.

5. Ongoing Commitment to Accuracy

We proactively review older content to ensure continued relevance and accuracy—especially regarding policy updates, energy incentive programs, and utility rate structures. Articles impacted by significant policy shifts (e.g., NEM changes, new energy storage regulations) are prioritized for content updates.

Our goal is to build and maintain the trust of our audience—renewable energy developers, energy consultants, C&I customers, and clean tech partners—by ensuring that every piece of content reflects our core values of accuracy, reliability, and service to the energy community.
