Plug-in solar, also called balcony solar, are solar panels that connect to a standard power outlet. They supply power directly to your home. They are a plug and play way to reduce our reliance on the electric grid and lower your energy bill without the need for a permit.

Flooding in Texas. Extreme heat in Arizona. Fires in California. Disasters like these are becoming more frequent, more intense, and more costly because of climate change. We all can see that our communities are vulnerable to extreme weather, but the Trump administration is repealing standards that protect our health and cut the pollution driving the climate crisis. They’re dismantling the EPA, NOAA, NWS, FEMA, and other agencies that provide critical support and services to help people prepare and respond to disasters. When disaster strikes, no one wins – except polluters. The Trump administration and its allies are gutting the very agencies that protect us, all to serve their billionaire oil and gas backers. We need to keep climate solutions on the books and be ready to respond to extreme weather disasters. Join us in urging the Trump administration to stop undermining pollution standards and stop weakening the EPA, NOAA, NWS, FEMA, and other critical federal agencies.
