Episode 31: Transmission Chokehold: Why Behind-the-Meter Solar & Storage Win the 2020s
America’s clean energy boom is running into a grid bottleneck. Utility-scale solar and storage projects are getting stuck for years in interconnection queues, transmission upgrades are crawling, and new ITC deadlines under the “Big Billionaire Bill” are adding even more pressure.
In this episode, Russ Bates breaks down why behind-the-meter solar + storage—for commercial, industrial, and residential systems—is the smart, fast, and realistic play for the rest of the decade.
Learn how distributed clean energy:
⚡ Protects businesses and homeowners from rising rates and grid instability
⚙️ Reduces strain on the grid during peak demand
🏗️ Can be designed, permitted, and built in months—not years 🇺🇸 Puts America’s new domestic manufacturing capacity to work right now
If you’re an installer, developer, or business looking to stay ahead of the curve, this episode explains why the future of clean energy might be closer to home than you think.
