712: SEIA’s 50-Year Legacy of Advancing Solar Energy with CEO, Abby Hopper
Manage episode 425864962 series 2804790
The United States just surpassed 5 million solar installations, but as excited as Abby Hopper is to shout that from the rooftops, she agrees we’re just getting started. While the last 50 years was about building a solid foundation (fighting for every inch), the next 50 actually has a lot more at stake.
The Solar Energy Industries Association celebrates its 50th anniversary this year, marking half a century of progress, innovation, and entrepreneurship in solar energy and storage.
Nico joined Abby Hopper, SEIA's President and CEO, at SEIA’s Washington, D.C. headquarters, to discuss the profound impact policy advocacy has made on the industry growth. SEIA has also helped produce industry standards and public awareness that both professionalized and propelled solar to new heights. Our largest trade association has had a large role to play in keeping solar power at the forefront of America's energy future, and that future is looking bright.
Expect to learn:
- How SEIA has evolved as an organization over the past 50 years and what the next 50 should look like.
- How Abby and SEIA are tackling the industry's most pressing challenges.
- SEIA's plans to advance solar through storytelling and advocacy.
- How they plan to navigate whatever political outcome happens in the upcoming election.
Listen in to hear a front-line solar warrior give her insights on the past, present, and future of the solar industry and how we all have a role to play in advancing clean energy.
