Essential Solar Advocacy. Today’s before and after comes thanks to the hard work of your friends at CALSSA. The California Energy Commission has formally published guidance that solar is essential as long as installers adhere to safety guidance. This is an important step for our industry to get back to work, helping people save money and become more resilient leading up to wildfire and hurricane seasons. While many of the fundraising events have had to be canceled, now is the time for you to join CALSSA so they can continue to advocate for your business. Without this guidance many installers would still have to remain closed easily making your investment worthwhile. To read the guidance you can click here, if you need an intro to Carter for membership, hit reply and I’ll get you one quickly.
Schools In Fall. Not all my questions to you need to be on solar and maybe this is a community survey that helps us all, at least those with kids. As you know, I have three kids, two of whom are in elementary school. The past few months has been something between Survivor, Amazing Race and The Real World. How are you coping with this and the norm of homeschooling the kids with two hours of zoom class per week? Part of me is trying to imagine this lasting through 2020 and wonder if anyone has good tips that don’t involve tying the kids to the chair.
Hawaii Sends Another Postcard. Rooftop solar in Hawaii is up 40% year over year and channel checks on the island confirm that interest remains strong. With 100% attachment rate of storage to solar, Hawaii’s solar companies may be the best at explaining how solar will be sold in the future. It’s nice to hear positives in the local economy coming from the island because the picture that Senator Schatz painted on Pod Save America was dire, 30% unemployment, with no tourism to speak of. Wishing our friends on the islands all the best.
What’s Your Impact. If you’re wondering what politicians are doing for solar and your business in the next piece of legislation, stimulus or bailout then you have to ask yourself what you asked them for. Their job isn’t to guess what you need. They are looking to hear and read about your story, the impact to your employees and the market you serve. Tom Matzzie described a good example of a solar installer in New York during our discussion. If you’re an installer in San Francisco, you should be talking to Pelosi’s office about the market and how it has impacted you. Same goes to everyone else across the Country.
