True Solar Takeaways


RE+ is the largest annual U.S. solar and renewable energy
conference. It's held in various locations every year.

Abby Hopper is the head of SEIA, the leading U.S. solar
industry advocacy organization, and she was at this live reading
and had that line.

Solar Power International (SPI) was the old name for RE
plus. 

Dean Solon is the founder and former CEO of Shoals
Technology. Every year, Shoals throws a huge party at RE+. As the
saying goes, what happens at the Shoals party stays at the Shoals
party. 

BOS. stands for "Balance of Systems"

EPC stands for Engineering, Procurement, and Construction.
They're basically the solar installers.

Solar developers can hire EPCs or sometimes they have their
own EPC division.

AHJ stands for Authorities Having Jurisdiction. They're the
various local organizations that deal with permitting for solar
installations, large and small.
