The U.S. distributed solar market is rapidly evolving, with new trends shaping the competitive landscape for distribution utilities. According to Wood Mackenzie's latest analysis using project-level datasets and EIA data, California utilities, such as PG&E and SCE, have historically led the way, comprising 33% of installed residential solar capacity and deploying a combined 5 GWdc of #commercialsolar. However, this dominance is set to wane, dropping to an estimated 13% by 2029 as growth accelerates in states like Texas and Florida. As the #distributedsolar sector expands beyond traditional strongholds, utilities will need to strategically invest in infrastructure and processes for interconnection, billing, and customer management. #Catalyze is here to assist in navigating these shifts with our integrated solar and #batterystorage solutions designed to meet evolving energy needs.

Navigating the landscape of #batterystorage can be complex. Selecting the optimal #batterystoragesystem is a strategic decision influenced by a multitude of factors, from specific use cases to interconnection complexities and supply chain considerations. At #Catalyze, we understand that selecting the right #BESS for your site goes beyond just technology—it's about aligning system design with your unique needs.

What an incredible two days at the New York Solar Energy Industries Association's 2024 NY Solar Summit. This year's event brought meaningful discussions on policy and project innovation, underscoring the exciting future of #cleanenergy in New York state. Key conversations addressed the state's expanded oversight in new wetlands guidelines, improving interconnection processes with better utility transparency, and the launch of the solar-for-all initiative, where utilities will now help secure #communitysolar subscribers and manage retention over a 25-year revenue-sharing framework. #Catalyze is proud to have participated in these important conversations, and we’re excited to continue helping businesses harness the power of #renewableenergy to drive real change. We look forward to seeing everyone again next year! #NYSolarSummit2024 #NYSolarSummit24

New York has reached a major #cleanenergy milestone by achieving 6 GW of #distributedsolar—one year ahead of its Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act target. This milestone, supported by the $3.3 billion NY-Sun initiative, underscores the state's leadership in distributed solar and #communitysolar models. The benefits are clear: lower emissions, energy savings for over a million homes, and significant private investment totaling $9.2 billion. The push towards 10 GW by 2030 is already in motion, signaling strong momentum in the state's renewable energy transition. At #Catalyze, we’re proud that our integrated solar and battery solutions have contributed to this milestone, supporting New York’s early progress in clean energy adoption. As solar penetration increases, #energystorage becomes even more vital for ensuring grid reliability and optimizing energy consumption.
