Politico is calling plug-in solar "the clean energy gateway drug," we couldn't agree more.
As Bright Saver co-founder Cora Stryker puts it: "Give people a little bit of solar… they see that their bill is going up slower than their neighbor, and you know, the light bulb goes off. This is better, faster, cheaper, and I don't have to pay more for a green solution. I actually paid less."

And that's just the start. "We see it expanding far beyond these little plug-in solar systems."

This is what a consumer-driven clean energy movement looks like, one household at a time!

A little more than a week ago, the Bright Saver was incredibly grateful to contribute all throughout SF Climate Week ⚡️

We kicked things off at the Accelerating the Transition (ATT) Conference, where our co-founder Cora Stryker joined the flagship opening panel to talk about scaling real climate solutions.

On Monday, we were on the ground at the Climate Tech Showcase: Electrification Without Upsizing. Here, connecting with hundreds of contractors, policymakers, investors, and industry leaders, and sharing how Bright Saver is making electrification more accessible.

By Wednesday, the conversation turned to a critical gap in the transition: renters. Alongside leaders from Grid Alternatives, Climatize, and Moon Five, we dug into why renters are often most impacted by climate change, and still left out of many clean energy solutions. More importantly, what it will take to change that.

We wrapped the week by hosting our own event and bringing the community together to keep the momentum going.

Big takeaway: building a truly sustainable future means making sure no one is left behind.

Thanks to everyone who showed up, shared ideas, and is helping push this work forward. As always, let's keep going! 🌱

Energy affordability continues to be one of the biggest conversations in the country.

In a new New York Times feature, Bright Saver is included as part of a growing shift: using clean energy to lower household energy costs.

At Bright Saver, we're committed to building a future where accessing affordable energy is simple, practical, and within reach. Let's keep going!

The SUNNY Act passed the New York State Senate, unanimously.

In one of the biggest states in the country, across parties and ideologies, lawmakers agreed: Expanding access to clean energy is a no-brainer.

This is bigger than one bill.
This is proof of where things are headed.

We’re incredibly excited to share that The M&T Charitable Foundation has sponsored Bright Saver to expand plug-in solar and clean energy access in Brattleboro, Vermont.

This support will help pilot a plug-in solar system designed to bring affordable, accessible energy directly to households that stand to benefit most.

Partnerships like this are key to expanding access and turning local clean energy solutions into reality.

We’re grateful to M&T and excited to keep building together.

Even in the opinion section, the message is clear… people across California are ready for plug-in solar.

This SF Chronicle letter shows real people are ready for real access to clean energy, and plug-in solar is part of that future.

As California’s plug-in solar legislation continues to move forward, it’s not just policy driving momentum, it’s people.

Bright Saver was featured on Fox News as plug-in solar legislation keeps moving forward in New York ☀️⚡

The SUNNY Act would help make plug-in solar more accessible by supporting simple, affordable solar systems for renters and homeowners.

Big things ahead for energy freedom, lower bills, and solar access for all.

Clean energy isn’t political—it’s about keeping cold, hard cash in people’s pockets.

Our co-founder, Cora Stryker, joined EcoRight Speaks to break down why plug-in solar is making energy independence simpler, cheaper, and more accessible for everyday households.

This is where the conversation is headed.

"...with just a handful of state-level reforms, plug-in solar could reach 60 million Americans by 2035 and slash household electricity costs — without a dime of public subsidy."

CleanTechnica neatly summarizes the key takeaways of our recent white paper — and the massive of potential plug-in solar to unlock energy access and affordability for millions of Americans. Check out their article and the white paper and learn more about how plug-in solar offers "the promise of a new solar revolution" (their words, not ours!). Links below.
