In North Carolina, the solar energy landscape is undergoing a significant transformation, driven by changes proposed by Duke Energy Progress (DEP), one of the major electric utility companies in the state.

In this blog post, we will explore the motivations driving Sugar Hollow Solar's position statement, provide a brief update on the main concepts behind the proposed changes, and outline its ongoing significance for individuals and businesses contemplating a transition to solar energy in North Carolina.
