Some states now allow plug-in solar panels
Original: In some states, you can now plug solar panels into your wall
Some US states have begun allowing residents to plug small solar panels directly into household wall outlets, a setup already common in Europe. Yale Climate Connections reports the change removes the need for professional installation and permits, making small-scale solar cheaper and more accessible. Supporters see it as a simple way for renters and homeowners to cut energy bills, while regulators weigh safety standards for the new connections.
Why now: Regulatory changes letting households use plug-in solar panels are new and raise questions about home energy affordability and safety
