In this week’s episode of The Energy Show, Barry Cinnamon talks with Sean Gallagher (Senior VP of Policy, SEIA) about the new market reality after recent federal changes and the financing tools, state policies, and grid programs that can help homeowners and installers move forward.
In this episode:
• How installers are adapting with leases, PPAs, and newer financing structures
• What to ask a financing provider before you sign (risk, FMV, payment timing, working capital)
• Why state-level policies are now the biggest lever: permitting automation, interconnection streamlining, and VPP/DPP programs
• The real promise of plug-in / balcony solar plus safety and standards
• Data centers + electrification: why electricity demand is rising and why solar + storage is the fastest scalable supply.
