New White Paper Spotlights Pennsylvania’s Progress in Pursuing Whole-Home Electrification
Summary
Austin, TX, September 26, 2023 --( PR.com )-- With National Clean Energy Week, Sept. 25-29, spotlighting America’s progress to a new energy future, data from Qmerit’s newly-released white paper – Electrification 2030 – may help gauge Pennsylvania’s state of readiness regarding homes acquiring the infrastructure needed to support whole-home electrification.The white paper, produced by the Electrification Institute recently established by Qmerit, shows that, for the first half of 2023, 7% of Qmerit’s electric vehicle charging installation customers in the Keystone State already had solar panels in their homes, which ranked 23rd nationally. Nationally, the figure is 20%.Looking at other jurisdictions, 28% of Qmerit’s customers in the District of Columbia this year already had solar panels, compared to 24% for Massachusetts, 18% for New York State, 7% for Pennsylvania and 2% for Georgia. )Qmerit is North America’s leading provider of installation services for EV charging and other electrification technologies. As shown in its white paper, homes and buildings having EV charging, solar panels, battery storage and other components can function more independently from the grid and have power during outages. They can even increase grid resiliency by selling their excess clean energy back to their utilities and by laying a foundation for the rise of virtual power plants (VPPs) which work to create a cleaner and more flexible energy system.Qmerit believes that its state and national installation data could help stakeholders come together in a more concerted way to advance America’s goals with electrification and energy that’s cleaner and more equitably distributed.About QmeritQmerit is North America’s leading provider of implementation solutions for EV charging and other energy transition technologies, simplifying electrification adoption for residential and business markets.
