The new 646 kilowatt #solar installation at The Knolls apartment complex will save 260 low-income households over $700 a year on their electricity bills! Sunrun was proud to cut the ribbon Friday with our BLDG Partners, FFAH, SCE, SOMAH Program and Mayor Dan Slater from

📢 NERC finds that we face an elevated risk of blackouts this winter. How can we do better? Use local #solar + storage as resources during critical times. ❄️ Learn more about the risks ahead and stay tuned here for more solutions. ▶︎ nerc.com/pa/RAPA/ra/Rel…

☀️ LS4A member Sunnova was in Puerto Rico this week to celebrate Project Hestia! Working with the Dept. of U.S. Department of Energy, the Project will scale up the use of virtual power plants and distributed energy resources (DERs) across the country and prioritize equitable solar access.

Americans might have more views in common than we realize. Two out of three voters want local #communitysolar, but also overwhelmingly support solar and wind over traditional energy like coal.

❄️ NERC’s Winter Reliability Assessment once again warns of potential energy outages for an outdated grid in the face of harsh winter weather. Local solar and storage solutions can provide the reliability we need during winter months. 🔗 nerc.com/pa/RAPA/ra/Pag…

There is incredible potential in deploying virtual power plants in low-income communities. #VPP According to U.S. Department of Energy, tripling VPP capacity by 2030 could save American consumers $10 billion in grid costs annually.

We talk a lot about how local #solar + storage can help communities save on energy costs and strengthen their electric grids as virtual power plants. But you don’t have to take our word for it. Check out what Dept. of U.S. Department of Energy has to say about VPPs. 🔗 liftoff.energy.gov/vpp/

#ICYMI Tripling #VPP 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. energynews.us/2023/11/01/com…

🔌 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. Check out this U.S. EPA report on electrification to learn more. 🔻 utilitydive.com/news/inflation…

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

“You’re subverting the democratic will of the people, that they want to stop using fossil fuels.” – @LeahStokes, UC Santa Barbara It's clear: Americans want #cleanenergy and they want it now. Read more via Los Angeles Times. lat.ms/3QRZ95a

Community solar offers a whole host of benefits to get more folks plugged into #cleanenergy. If it’s not in your state, work with CCSA to change that! ☀️ Find out how #CommunitySolar could benefit you. 🔻 cnet.com/home/energy-an…

As #COP28 is about to kick off, let's remember how we can speed up our clean energy transition: #electrifyeverything and make sure that local solar and virtual power plants are part of the strategy. #VPP ☀️

We’re celebrating 3 years of the Local Solar Roadmap this week! Using a Vibrant Clean Energy tool, the Roadmap found that deploying more local #solar + storage can get us the cleanest, lowest-cost grid. ☀️273GW of local solar = 💰$473B savings + over 2M jobs. 🔗 localsolarforall.org/roadmap

🎉 Celebrating 3 years of solar innovation! ☀️The Local Solar Roadmap's vision: 247 GW of local solar reducing grid costs by $120B. Let's make energy greener and cheaper! #CleanEnergy 🔗 localsolarforall.org/roadmap

🌞 3rd anniversary lookback: When we wrote the 2020 Local Solar Roadmap, we were really talking about how virtual power plants like local solar and storage were the key to the cleanest, lowest cost future grid. Let’s make the future now! #VPP🔗 localsolarforall.org/roadmap

3rd Anniversary Alert! 🎉 ☀️ Our 2020 Local Solar Roadmap showed that local solar + storage saves $473B on the way to creating a clean, stable and affordable grid. That’s how we keep the lights on, and put people first! #EnergyStorage #CleanEnergy 🔗 localsolarforall.org/roadmap

The #LocalSolarRoadmap sets a goal for a 95% emission reduction by 2050. It was an ambitious target then, but now we know we can go faster. Let’s go for more local solar and more savings faster! 🌿 #ClimateAction #GreenGoals🔗 localsolarforall.org/roadmap
