Not sure if everyone appreciates the difference. Rooftop solar hardwires into your main panel via a dedicated breaker, so it requires a permit, an installer, an electrician, and a utility agreement. Balcony solar just plugs into a wall outlet, sharing an existing circuit with no permits or rewiring.

A new deal on balcony solar just dropped in the US

Plug-in panels can lower your bills. To boost the American market for the tech, nonprofit Bright Saver is selling kits with no markup, starting at around…

“Affordable” and “invest in the grid” get treated as opposites. They’re not — if you get the sequencing right. A thread on how growth, efficiency, and smarter equipment can lower bills instead of raising them. 🧵

Affordability vs. climate is a false choice, and 11 states are already proving it. Cheaper power. More homes. Cheaper ways to get around. Less pollution. New from Evergreen Collaborative, a cross-state playbook for legislators, govs, and regulators: 🔗

I just wrote a letter to @ferc.gov & @fercopp.bsky.social calling bullshit on the new Blanket Certificates rules. FERC says they're just for small projects and admin changes, but they're rubber stamping huge #DataCenter and #LNG export projects. Send a message: actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...

Tell FERC: We call Bullshit on your Blanket Certificates

FERC is changing the rules on Blanket Certificates so more and bigger projects can get a rubber stamp approval. But two projects prove why this is bullshit. Join us and submit a comment telling FERC, ...

Norway will always be the GOAT of the energy transition. Instead of talking about the future, they proved it could be done & showed how. In 15 years, new car sales went from 0% to 99% electric, while the rest of the world kept arguing about timing and speed. #Bettrification #EV

Why the European left should always be pro-AC: - Ceding this popular issue to the right empowers them; in power they'll gut climate action far more than any AC "emissions." - AC runs on solar. Breaking news: The sun shines when it's hot. - AC saves lives. HEAT PUMPS FOR ALL! (AC is a heat pump...)

California's electricity generation from gas in June so far is way down compared to previous years: -40% from 2025 -70% from 2021 Solar + battery storage are pushing gas out in the middle of the day and evening peak. A big step-up in wind generation is reducing gas further.
