We Believe in Distributed Energy
Distributed Energy means smaller solar projects built by local communities, businesses and landowners for the use of the people in that community.
Distributed Energy means local jobs and huge financial boosts to the community.*
Distributed Energy has a significant, positive impact on electricity rates, development and business investment.
Distributed Energy is faster to install, easier to finance and has none of the complications of centralized generation such as permitting issues, local resistance to building and the required new transmission lines.
Distributed Energy can use local marginal or non-farmable land. No need to go to remote, pristine and controversial locations.
*A recent UC Berkeley study showed that if California reaches its state's renewable energy goals for 2020 with distributed generation projects instead of utility-scale, remote projects, it will get hundreds of thousands more in-state jobs, tens of billions more in private investment and billions more in tax revenues.
