How to Stop Getting Burned by Bad Solar Policy (Insights from Clean Energy Executive)

In this episode of What Solar Installers Need to Know, Hervé Billiet sits down with Sam Evans-Brown, Executive Director of Clean Energy New Hampshire, to break down how solar policy actually gets made and why it matters to installers on the ground. Sam shares how the organization evolved into a serious clean energy trade and policy group, why utilities and co-ops are increasingly aligned with solar, and the real reasons behind pain points like interconnection delays, net metering battles, labor shortages, and slow permitting. It’s a practical conversation about engaging policymakers, choosing the right associations, and explaining solar in plain language to build long-term stability for the industry.
