Solaris Energy

The 🌎 doesn't wait for us to sort through our politics and policies, which means this trend of banning renewable energy across the US is especially concerning.

Our very own Nick Perugini, participated in a multi-year research effort with over 130 interviews conducted by USA TODAY to provide a package of articles on the topic.

What did the research find? A concerning level of misinformation leading to bans that will hinder the USA's ability to hit critical climate goals.

Although we don't work in the utility solar and wind space, we know many of these projects will be a critical piece of the puzzle when it comes to hitting necessary targets to curb extremely concerning climate change impacts. This furthers our belief in the importance of industry organizations fighting against these poorly-made policies. Thank you to Solar Energy Industries Association, Arizona Solar Energy Industries Association (AriSEIA), Colorado Solar and Storage Association - COSSA, California Solar & Storage Association, Sierra Club and others for your work in thoughtful policy and a sustainable future for our people and planet.

We urge you to join us in supporting these organizations and policy-makers that support a renewable energy, climate-friendly future.
