The SUN DAY Campaign took a peek at the latest scoop from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and guess what? Solar power is still rocking the charts as the go-to for new electricity generation in the U.S. For six months straight, solar has been owning the scene, with February 2024 seeing it grab a whopping 83.64% of the new capacity. And wind? Well, it's not far behind, showing some serious growth that even surprised FERC. Check this out: in the first two months of 2024, solar brought in 78.50% of the new juice, with wind adding 20.34%. It's been a trend since September 2023, with solar leading the charge, sometimes letting wind sneak in second, while natural gas only occasionally gets a slice of the pie. Solar's got its foot in the door now, claiming 8.21% of the total installed utility-scale generating capacity, even leaving hydropower in the dust. Wind's got a cool 11.77%, and if you lump all renewables together, they make up almost 30%. Just a year back, solar was only at 6.63%, so you can see how it's been hustling. Sure, solar's not quite top dog yet; it's hanging out in fourth place behind natural gas, coal, and wind. But hold onto your hats because FERC predicts that in three years, solar could be leaving wind and coal in the dust. FERC's forecasting a mega boost in solar power from 2024 to 2027, with a "high probability" of adding a whopping 87,749 MW, way more than what's expected for wind. And get this: while coal and gas are expected to chill out, solar's party's just getting started. If FERC's crystal ball is right, by 2027, solar could be flexing its muscles, making up over 14% of the nation's electricity generation, leaving coal and wind in the rearview mirror. And if we throw in distributed solar, which is basically solar panels on rooftops, the future's even brighter. With all that sunshine power, we could be looking at renewables outpacing gas. The head honcho at the SUN DAY Campaign, Ken Bossong, is pretty stoked about solar's success. He's thinking solar has what it takes to keep smashing records and leading the charge, with renewables, including our buddy distributed solar, giving gas a run for its money in no time.

Soligent and Sungage Financial Launch New PowerUp Program to Boost Savings for Solar Installers Since 2021, Soligent and Sungage Financial have been pivotal in providing solar installers across the nation with the tools needed to offer flexible financing and reliable solar equipment to homeowners eager to embrace solar energy. Their collaboration through the Direct Pay partnership has simplified the process for many, making solar power more accessible. This week, an exciting advancement in this partnership will be introduced at SolarCon, a premier North American solar networking conference in Salt Lake City, Utah. The two companies are set to unveil PowerUp, an enhanced version of the Direct Pay program designed to further aid solar installation companies. What Is PowerUp? PowerUp aims to alleviate the financial pressures on solar companies by offering additional volume-based discounts on both solar system hardware and financing options. This initiative means that partners can enjoy significant savings on equipment costs and financing fees, which in turn allows them to offer more competitive pricing to homeowners. With the lowest possible monthly payments, more homeowners can enjoy the benefits of solar energy, facilitated by trusted and high-quality solar equipment. Michael Gilroy, CEO of Sungage Financial, highlights the timing and necessity of the PowerUp program: “We know margins are tight for our partners given the recent fluctuation in financing rates and escalating business expenses. We are constantly looking for ways to help our partners save money and streamline their business operations, which is why we’re excited to launch PowerUp.” Luke Hutchins, Vice-President of Sales and Marketing at Soligent, also shared his enthusiasm about expanding their collaboration: "This initiative marks a significant advancement in our commitment to empowering solar installation companies with more robust tools and opportunities. By enhancing our Direct Pay program, we are not only able to offer substantial savings but also facilitate a smoother, more efficient way for homeowners to adopt solar energy." How Does It Work? Solar installation companies that are partnered with and approved by both Soligent and Sungage can benefit from the PowerUp program. The program offers discounts based on the monthly funding volume, available to partners funding at least $250,000 a month. For more information on how to get started or to understand more about the program, interested companies can reach out to powerup@sungagefinancial.com or fill out an online form provided by Sungage.

The Maryland General Assembly recently approved Senate Bill 783, known as the Brighter Tomorrow Act, aimed at boosting local solar development and simplifying the permitting process. The bill seeks to reduce costs associated with solar projects and enhance their value for energy consumers statewide. With Maryland striving for a clean economy and aiming to strengthen its electric grid, this legislation becomes crucial. Maryland's Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) already mandates a significant portion of energy from solar sources by 2030, but the state has lagged in meeting interim targets. The Brighter Tomorrow Act addresses this by: Increasing the compliance value for energy from specific new solar projects, making it easier for electric suppliers to meet solar targets under the RPS. Introducing a residential solar grant program administered by the Maryland Energy Administration, offering up to $7500 to low-and-moderate-income households adopting solar. Promoting the adoption of automated digital solar permitting software by local governments, aiming to enhance efficiency, lower installation costs, and facilitate wider solar adoption. Supporters like Robin Dutta from the Chesapeake Solar and Storage Association (CHESSA) emphasize the importance of such legislation in realizing clean energy goals and expanding Maryland's solar workforce. Senator Sarah Elfreth, the primary sponsor of SB783, underscores the collaborative effort behind the Brighter Tomorrow Act, citing the work of the Solar Task Force. Delegate David Fraser-Hidalgo, who sponsored the House cross-file of the bill, highlights its origins in the Solar Task Force and its evolution during the legislative process to encompass multiple measures for solar development. Notably, the inclusion of the SolarAPP+ tool aims to streamline residential solar permitting. Overall, the Brighter Tomorrow Act signifies Maryland's dedication to clean energy and establishes innovative pathways for solar development, supported by collaborative efforts and informed by expert recommendations.
