50th Anniversary Gala. I’m heading to DC today to join many of you and industry leaders for the SEIA board of directors meeting and SEIA’s Golden Gala! It’s impressive what the industry has been able to achieve since President Carter installed solar thermal panels on the White House, promptly removed by the successor resident. If not for the massive trade fights that have plagued solar for a decade plus, the industry has been able to drive solar panel costs to single digit pennies per watt and installed panels on millions of rooftops across the Country. See you all in DC!
