While it’s not a great indicator, in my residential clean energy world of tiny NH I’m seeing a big increase in home battery storage with very strong interest. It’s encouraging to see people who aren’t early adopters or “greenies” who recognize the value and are choosing this over, or in conjunction with, fossil fuel generators. The recognition that that can extend savings into the evening from their solar is a big win, even while knowing that the batteries likely can’t be filled from solar during our frequent winter outages.

I like the chart showing the pronounced increases in solar installations near December. Is that more to do with improved accounting near year’s end, or lower demand for solar combined with lower operating temperatures to mitigate teething troubles?

Also, it’d be nice to read some more on enhanced geothermal coming online, as well as Texas’ ‘plug-and-play’ method of approving interconnections.
