The Economics of Load Defection: How Grid-Connected Solar-Plus-Battery Systems Will Compete with Traditional Electric Service, Why it Matters, and Possible Paths Forward
In particular, we sought to answer two core questions:1. Lowest-Cost Economics: When grid-connected customers have the option to source their entire load either from a) the grid, b) a solar- plus-battery system, or c) some combinationof the grid, solar PV, and batteries, how does that configuration change over time based…

How to Calculate and Present Deep Retrofit Value: A Guide for Owner-Occupants (Executive Summary)
This might come as a surprise to some, but energy efficiency is about more than energy, and deep energy retrofits, which achieve superior energy savings over conventional retrofits and can reduce a building’s energy consumption by 50 percent or more, offer bottom-line benefits for business beyond energy cost savings alone.
The Economics of Load Defection
Grid-connected solar-plus-battery systems are coming, and could soon supply the majority of a customers’ electricity needs.
Bridges to New Solar Business Models
Utilities, solar companies, and regulators can design and implement components of solar business model strategies today that provide a bridge to the future. These “bridge” business model strategies—including three complementary “building blocks” and discrete next steps—can start to create and capture value, while also providing best practices and lessons learned…
