Local Solar For All

If we can’t maintain a stable and affordable electric grid, how will we be able to successfully electrify and decarbonize? 🔋

🔌 Electrification is one of the most effective ways to decarbonize. But for it to be a success, we’ll need local solar and storage go mainstream to keep the grid stable and affordable.

IRA-driven electrification, other steps could cut building GHG emissions up to 70%: EPA Inflation Reduction Act incentives could reduce building greenhouse gas emissions through 2035 more than emissions in any other end-use sector, according to a recent EPA report.

Tripling virtual power plant capacity — from 80 GW to 160 GW — by 2030 could save U.S. ratepayers $10 billion annually in grid costs.

With extreme weather and rolling blackouts on the rise, VPPs can help low-income communities shore up their energy security.
