California Joins the Balcony Solar Movement
Original: What We’re Reading: California Joins the Balcony Solar Revolution
California is embracing balcony solar, small plug-in solar panels that apartment dwellers and renters can install on balconies and railings without major permitting. The move follows European countries like Germany, where balcony solar has surged in popularity. Supporters say it opens clean energy access to people who cannot install rooftop systems, though critics note the power output of these compact units remains modest.
Why now: A state known for its large-scale solar policy is now making clean energy accessible to renters and apartment residents.
