I dream of a lush veggie garden, a gray water system, solar panels, and a battery to keep it sustainably powered all night long. And, while I’m stoked about having a positive impact, I’ve wondered if the savings are really there… I mean, is solar energy worth it?
- Long-Term Value - Low Maintenance Costs - Tax Incentives - Increase Of Home Value - Reduced Utility Bills - Energy Independence
I live in an apartment too. While I can’t put solar panels directly on my roof, I can still get involved in the clean energy transition! The best news is, that you don’t have to own your home to be a solar energy advocate!
Vote Solar is an advocate for state-level policies to build a strong, just, and inclusive 100% clean-powered future! They’re working to advance clean energy progress in state legislatures where most decisions about electricity are made.
We know that going solar is worth it. You’ll be saving money and reducing emissions. So, if you’re able to put solar on your own home, I applaud you. But, whether you’re in that position or not, you can still advocate for just, clean energy for EVERYONE.
One of the best ways is to hold your legislators’ feet to the fire! Call, email, text, and make sure that clean energy initiatives that are designed to benefit EVERYONE are on the top of the agenda.
