This is your SolarWakeup for February 3rd, 2016

Interestingly (and under the radar), energy has been making its way through the Senate. But when it comes to energy in the US, it is still very much the shale gas revolution. I really can’t fault the system for this but if you do, I would understand that too. It’s an election year, energy has been beat up and gas is spending the dollars in D.C. which solar is not. Everyone is raising money like crazy and in a decade long lobbying effort, the long money can make progress like this so it is not surprising. If solar wants to win these long battles, we have to look in the mirror on how we spend money in policy beyond individual companies.

Have a great day!
