XBRL US News Final Public Review Launched for Orange Button Solar Finance Taxonomy
SunSpec Alliance and XBRL US announced the start of a second 30-day public review period for the Orange Button data standards for solar
financing. The digital dictionary of terms, called a taxonomy, was developed through Orange Button which is a U.S. Department of Energy Solar Energy Technologies Office-funded program, that aims to make it easier to exchange solar data, facilitating more efficient and cost-effective financing of distributed energy projects. The public review for the taxonomy ends March 12, 2018. Read the release: https://xbrl.us/news/solar-20180212/ Join the XBRL API Beta Test Group
We’re getting ready to publish an updated application programming interface (API) with enhanced capabilities – including the use of any/all

This updated, open, easy-to-use offering will be the API standard to extract, process, and create XBRL content, which can include data in instance documents, XBRL databases, and taxonomies.
