Pennsylvania's NPR affiliate The Allegheny Front reports on Bright Saver product and the corresponding plug-in solar legislation in PA.
Bipartisan support, including 3 Republican co-sponsors, signals this is bigger than party lines! 🌞

Interesting piece from @canarymedia.com released today.
We're thinking about that same question. As a governor who's prioritized affordability, we hope she'll recognize both the climate and affordability benefits plug-in solar brings to the NY masses.

The future is renewables. Great work, Mark. Clean energy is for the economy and the planet!
Yes, it did! Shoutout to our policy team who have kept their foot on the gas in CA and all these other states introducing/passing plug-in solar legislation!
New @iea.org analysis on EU electrification answers a question people keep asking: is going electric actually cheaper today?
For large share of demand, increasingly yes. Where a country's bar reaches into or above the 2025 price band, it's already cost-competitive. Hold-up is cost, grids and taxes.
Solar is already creating the fastest shift in electricity generation in history - and it is still accelerating reneweconomy.com.au/solar-is-alr...
Solar generating more electricity than coal across the US for an entire month by 2026 would have sounded implausible in 2016.
What excites me even more, than how far we've come, & expectations already surpassed, is that today is still merely the beginning. Cost always wins. #SWB #Bettrification
Clean energy is green, for our planet and pockets.
This becomes more commonly agreed upon everyday. Fair to say? Well, the numbers don't lie.
Take a look at our most recent Instagram post explaining that idea here: www.instagram.com/p/DZnNwx0m45...
Our plug-in solar legislation tracker continues to receive attention. That's what we're hoping for!
With CA SB 868 clearing the Assembly Committee on Utilities and Energy unanimously, our policy team is eager to make POSITIVE changes to the tracker!

Data centre electricity demand is projected to exceed the entire power consumption of the state.
Already, data centres are adding an estimated €1.6 billion to Irish households’ electricity bills, while paying around half the rate charged to ordinary consumers.
This model is unsustainable.
These low-cost solar panels plug into any outlet and generate enough electricity to power a refrigerator or TV, lowering your electric bill.
Solar is moving fast. Really fast. Batteries are moving faster. And there is no evidence in either prices or deployment that the system is about to tap the brakes.
Survey of 1,994 business leaders in 18 countries:
90%: "transitioning to a renewables-based electricity system boosts economic growth"
88%: "electrifying operations will make their business more competitive"
90% expect to electrify operations by 2035, 73% by 2030

@scottwiener.bsky.social's balcony solar bill (SB 868), which already cleared the California Senate, just passed unanimously out of the Assembly's Utilities and Energy Committee: www.ewg.org/news-insight... 🔌💡

A landmark global survey of business executives across 18 countries shows overwhelming support for a rapid transition to electrified economies run predominantly on renewables-based electricity.
SACRAMENTO – The Environmental Working Group today applauds the state Assembly Utilities and Energy Committee for advancing a bill that will help Californians tackle sky-high energy

The legislature passed a measure to allow DIY plug-in solar panels, and clean energy boosters are hopeful that Hochul will sign it to promote…
