I am intrigued by the news coverage that solar tea parties are able to get. Being generally jaded by politics, in particular State politics, it’s surprising that this path works from a political point of view. In Indiana, it appears to have been a tactic hijacked by the ‘other side’ and a ‘pro-solar’ bill is being supported by everyone but solar. Politics is like business, innovation and being one step ahead is key. In case you have to debate solar with that uncle of yours who just doesn’t get it, use this video (courtesy of Sunrun) to make your point.
