Interconnections with Vaughan Woodruff

Interconnection regulations are quietly blocking solar projects across America. Vaughan Woodruff, distributed energy resources consultant and former VP of Regulatory Reform at IREC, reveals why outdated utility rules are stalling clean energy adoption. Discover how Maine became #2 nationally for solar capacity per capita, why Delaware's community solar program failed spectacularly, and which technical solutions could unlock grid capacity without expensive upgrades. This conversation explores the regulatory maze where only 37 states have formal interconnection standards, each different, many decades old. Learn why smart policy matters as much as smart inverters for achieving our renewable energy future.   Topics Covered DER = Distributed Energy Resources Interconnection ESS = Energy Storage System EV = Electric Vehicle Diablo Canyon Inverter Heatspring Utility Grid ISO = Independent System Operator SREC = Solar Renewable Energy Certificate Renewable Energy Certificates Market EquinoxDG www.linkedin.com/company/equinoxdg IREC = Interstate Renewable Energy Council CCA = Community Choice Aggregiation Paul Finn Balcony Solar Interconnection Agreement Guerilla Solar Home Power Magazine Podcast with Alfred Ignacio (AI) Apple Podcast YouTube Spotify Pandora Podbean   Podcast with Khanti Munro Apple Podcast YouTube Spotify Pandora Podbean  Podcast with Paul Fenn Part 1 YouTube Podbean  Podcast with Paul Fenn Part 2 YouTube Podbean   Reach out to Vaughan Woodruff here: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vaughan-woodruff-9a7a0821/  EquinoxDG: www.linkedin.com/company/equinoxdg   Learn more at www.solarSEAN.com and be sure to get NABCEP certified by taking Sean’s classes at www.heatspring.com/sean www.solarsean.com/pvip www.solarsean.com/esip
