Last week at RE+, I was energized to join nearly 40k solar + storage leaders who are driving our industry forward.
This was only my second RE+, but even in the midst of fed. policy uncertainty, the tenacity and optimism on display were remarkable. I can't wait for next year.

This is now the *fifth* study since late last year demonstrating that repealing energy tax credits will force every single consumer and household in the country to pay more for what they use.
When will Congress abandon their effort to gouge families and hike your bills?
BIG news: Solar added a record-breaking 50 GW of new capacity in 2024.
That’s more than ANY single energy source in the last two decades and the most solar energy ever installed in a single year.

Yesterday I was proud to join #solar + #storage companies from across the country on Capitol Hill during SEIA's largest lobby day.
160+ companies sent representatives and 1,900+ U.S. businesses signed letters telling Congress to protect American energy tax credits.
Let's keep the momentum going!
America has reached 50 GW of #solar module #manufacturing capacity, surpassing SEIA’s 2030 goal 5 years early. The US can now supply 100% of domestic solar demand with American-made panels.
Read how the US is rapidly building out all parts of the domestic solar supply chain in our latest release.
Today SEIA releases ambitious energy #storage goals for 2030🔋
The industry will strive to reach 10 million distributed storage installations and 700 GWh total of installed battery capacity across all market segments. Check it out! seia.org/news/seia-an...
