US state laws require interconnection agreements with local utilities & multiple permits. Neither #NationalElectricalCode nor #UnderwritersLaboratories have certified balcony solar. So no balcony solar in the US. Nonprofit #BrightSaver is trying to change that with installations in CA.

Plug-in solar is coming to the U.S.! A new nonprofit, Brightsaver, is making it ultra-simple and affordable to take climate action—starting in the Bay Area and expanding soon.
