  1. Electric Vehicle Ownership On The Rise — And That’s Great News For Residential Solar Installers Trina Solar

  2. Introduction Americans are buying more electric vehicles (EVs) and zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs) than ever before, and at a rate that’s only projected to continue rising. This rapidly growing fleet of U.S. EVs, along with the infrastructure to support it, offers an excellent chance for residential installers to identify new sales opportunities. But leveraging this seismic potential will require durable and reliable residential solar modules that deliver maximum value to homeowners. Let’s take a closer look at the state of EV growth in the U.S. and what this means for residential solar installers.

  3. The State of EV Growth in the U.S. Americans bought around 16,000 EVs in total by 2011, but by mid-2021 had purchased more than 2 million — a one-hundred-fold increase. And this trend should only continue. A mix of more government mandates, expanding EV model types, and always-volatile gas prices will likely drive many more people to transition from gas-fueled cars to electric ones. If the U.S. Congress passes the Build Back Better Act, it will contain tax incentives for purchasing EVs. Even though this bill remains stalled in negotiations, state governments are moving forward with orders and regulations to increase EV adoption rates.

  4. The State of EV Growth in the U.S. Fourteen states have adopted California’s low-emission vehicle (LEV) or ZEV standards, referred to as the “177 States,” because Section 177 of the Clean Air Act allows them to adopt stricter emissions standards without seeking EPA approval. Additional states are in the process of updating their tailpipe emissions standards to align with the 177 States.

  5. What More EV Adoption Means for Residential Solar Installers As EVs become more prevalent, they create an incredible opening and selling point for residential solar installers. From the perspective of potential customer personas, people who purchase rooftop solar panels share similar motivations to those who are also likely to drive or want to drive an EV. Whether it’s reducing their carbon footprints, lowering their energy bills, or seeking greater energy independence, a demographic overlap already exists for both groups. In most instances, EVs and residential solar panels go hand in hand in helping homeowners accomplish any or all of these goals. Due to this confluence of interests, residential solar installers should consider emphasizing the mutually beneficial relationship between EVs and rooftop solar panels for potential customers.

  6.
