Should clean energy policy prioritize renters over homeowners?
My home solar panels cut my electricity bill by 70% last year, but I know I'm privileged to have financed them upfront. The real test for solar isn't people like me—it's renters and low-income households who can't afford the $15,000 installation. If we want clean energy for everyone, shouldn't we focus more on community solar projects and policy that makes panels accessible, rather than just celebrating the homeowners who can pay?
