Packed house at 2019 Smart Energy Consumer Collaborative event at Distributech. Interesting to see what a century of rate based, monopolies can do to the state of consumer engagement and what a journey it is for #utilities to try and think about #ratepayers as #customers.

The #communitysolar movement has been driven by strong customer demand from those who don't have access to solar today. A great example is the SC Community Program in South Carolina, which serves 900 customers, & sold out within 5 months #SolarSnapShot #CommunitySolarWorks

MI could see $3b in investment by 2030 with better #CommunitySolar policy. It is time for legislators to pass community solar and give Michigan families options to save money on energy bills while promoting clean air and water. #solar4all bit.ly/CSVision
