What's up with residential solar?

The Energy Show

About this episode

In this week’s episode of The Energy Show, Barry Cinnamon talks with Sean Gallagher (Senior VP of Policy, SEIA) about the new market reality after recent federal changes. As well as the financing tools, state policies, and grid programs that can help homeowners and installers move forward.

In this episode:

• How installers are adapting to the end of the residential tax credit with leases, PPAs, and newer financing structures

• What to ask a financing provider before you sign (risk, Fair Market Value, payment timing, working capital, Approved Vendors List)

• Why state-level policies are now the biggest lever: permitting automation, interconnection streamlining, and VPP/DPP programs

• The real promise of plug-in / balcony solar — and the UL standards challenge

• Data centers + electrification: why local solar + storage is the fastest and cheapest way to meet data center power demands
