Free Webinar: Electrify Efficiently: Electrification Opportunities for Solar Installers, January 30, 12-1:30pm
Event Description
California’s push for building electrification is quickly driving major changes in the residential energy sphere. Solar contractors, designers, and affiliated trades have the opportunity to capture additional market share by offering or referring gas-to-electric appliance services. This is especially important in light of recent NEM policy changes. Solar, batteries, and home appliance electrification offer a perfect match for getting customers to Zero Net Energy, or at least minimizing operational costs.
In this session, Electrify My Home will introduce basics of heat pumps as well as highlighting the business opportunities for solar professionals to add new services to their repertoire or to at least speak to these offerings with more confidence.
The objective of this course is that at the conclusion, participants will be able to:
- Explain why electrification of home appliances is a good pairing with solar installations
- List the date when most natural gas furnaces will no longer be available for sale in California
- Name one way electrification can possibly help with the duck curve
- Summarize importance of Electrify My Home's approach to 'good electrification' and 'install small'
- Electrification paired with solar PV
- CA Clean Energy Transition
- Highly Efficient Electric Appliances
- Growth opportunities for Solar Installers and Companies
- Q&A
