Join the Southern Alliance for Clean Energy (SACE) on Wednesday, July 22, at 1 PM ET for a webinar on our recent white paper analysis, Disproportionate Regulation of Residential Plug-in Solar, which examines how residential plug-in solar — an accessible, affordable, and safe technology — faces heavier regulation than portable diesel or gas generators. |
Webinar: Disproportionate Regulation of Residential Plug-in Solar Wednesday, July 22 | 1 - 2 PM ET |
Webinar speakers include white paper authors Amanda Arthur, SACE Distributed Energy Manager, and Dr. Stephen A. Smith, SACE Executive Director, alongside Stephan Scherer, CEO and co-founder of CraftStrom Solar, the leading supplier of certified direct-to-consumer plug-in solar and battery solutions. The presentation will contain an introduction to plug-in, or "balcony," solar, followed by white paper highlights with an emphasis on safety, including: |
- Support for plug-in solar is booming: 35 states and Washington, D.C. have introduced plug-in solar legislation and nine states have passed legislation as of June 1, 2026.
- Interconnection requirements are the primary barrier to plug-in solar deployment in the U.S., not technical safety limitations.
- No lineworker has ever been killed or injured by backfeed from a grid-tied plug-in solar system; documented lineworker fatalities are exclusively caused by portable gas/diesel generators.
- The annual probability of lineworker electric shock from plug-in solar islanding is less than one in one billion per year, yet regulations of the technology are disproportionately high.

For those who are unable to tune into the live webinar, a recording and other resources will be sent to all registrants. |
