❤️❤️ this from one of my favorite writers: "My home is an island of people committed to kindness, inside a country devoted to violence. No amount of hatred will make us hateful. But that feels lonely right now. Reaching out a hand here to every other household feeling the same."- Barbara Kingsolver

I believe in the transformative potential of decentralized (distributed) clean energy, especially from plug-in solar + batteries—affordable, portable, plug-&-play solar systems owned by individual households to generate & store their own free energy from the sun. Learn more: brightsaver.org

Join us in taking this Sun Day Joint Action to call on our local elected officials to implement policies that remove barriers to clean energy access, including plug-in, balcony solar, for all residents and businesses☀️https://actionnetwork.org/forms/build-clean-energy-now?source=direct_link&

It's not a clean energy transition, it's a complete energy transformation: ☀️ "We're completely transforming human lifestyles on a global basis—how we live, the energy that powers us & what we do with that energy." - Assaad W. Razzouk, #94, The Angry Clean Energy Guy podcast

You're invited to join us for a livestream of the kickoff media event of the Portable Solar for Vermont campaign on Wed., Sept. 17th at 3pm ET. Co-hosted by VPIRG, VNRC, VCV & Bright Saver.☀️ us02web.zoom.us/webinar/regi...

"This story which is the one genuinely uplifting, promising, exciting story, which is that we now have the means at our disposal...to power the planet & modern industrial life with zero emissions" - @chrislhayes.bsky.social with @billmckibben.bsky.social ☀️⬇️ www.youtube.com/watch?v=n9Mm...

These balcony solar units could be the gateway drug to more solar everywhere in the USA.

"In March, Utah lawmakers became the first in the U.S. to pass a law explicitly removing key hurdles to plug-in solar. Could Vermont be next?" ☀️

Calling all Solar Pioneers in the SF Bay Area, California: We're excited to announce the Bright Saver Backyard Solar 2.0 pilot. Help us test & learn from two new larger backyard plug-in systems. Learn more: www.brightsaver.org/backyard-solar ☀️ Be part of the plug-in solar revolution #solarenergy

So exciting to have Bright Saver & Plug-in Solar featured in today's @nytimes.com: "Plug-in solar, also known as balcony solar, refers to small-scale solar systems that can be installed without an electrician or without permission from a local utility." ☀️ 🎉 www.nytimes.com/2025/08/12/c...

Another real-world example of how Solar, Wind & Batteries (SWBs) are revolutionizing our lives and teaching us how to think in circular, regenerative ways vs. fossil fuel's linear destruction of our lives, planet and children's future.

Wildfires continue to burn across parts of the U.S. and Canada again, and air quality has dropped from "moderate" to "unhealthy" again for millions of Americans Thursday (lasting through the weekend). Here’s a quick 🧵 on how climate change is part of the smoke story 🔽

We're on a mission to ensure that anyone anywhere can generate their own clean energy, lower their utility bills, and—when paired with battery storage—increase resilience during outages & weather events. ☀️ Join the Bright Saver Plug-in Solar for ALL movement: Brightsaver.org/Join

📣Don't miss our next Bright Saver webinar tomorrow, Tues., July 29th on our strategy for expanding plug-in solar in the U.S., so that all Americans are empowered to ⬇️ their energy bills, ⬇️ their carbon footprint & generate their own clean power. Register here: brightsaver.org/webinars%E2%...

"Over the past 10 years, average residential electricity bills have risen by 23% across the US...As a result, promoting affordable electricity is a top priority for states..." rmi.org/us-governors... ☀️Join our mission to bring plug-in solar to all states—to lower energy bills & carbon footprints

Another recommendation for US governors to add to this valuable @rockymtninst.bsky.social report: Collaborate with @brightsaver.bsky.social to bring plug-in "balcony" solar to their states to lower energy bills, increase energy independence & build resilience. #solar #climate #togetherwecan

With household energy bills rising, I am excited to learn more in this webinar next week about how Bright Saver is jumpstarting the plug-in solar movement in the US to help bring affordable, simple-to-install "balcony" solar access to all Americans: ⬇️☀️ #solar #climate #togetherwecan #joinus

"We’ve passed some invisible line where sun, wind & batteries have become cheaper & that gives us a chance to unweave the dependence on fossil fuel. That comes with many bonuses—a world that runs on a resource that you can’t hoard or fight wars over & that's available everywhere."☀️Pre-order now ⬇️

In red states & blue, there's still so much that we can do, for example: "Texas leads the country in clean energy installation; Utah this winter became the first state in the nation to permit “balcony solar,” the small-scale units that hang from the verandas of millions of European apartments."☀️ ⬇️

The sun is having its moment and that’s why we’re celebrating Sun Day on September 21. ☀️ If you need more reasons to celebrate the clean energy revolution, read this from @billmckibben.bsky.social👇
