The update also includes standards to make new homes more energy efficient and, in some cases, incentivizes energy storage. Where homes may not be able to have rooftop solar, the mandate requires them to have access to a <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.edf.org\/energyexchange\/2016\/08\/02\/10-reasons-why-we-love-community-solar\/\">community, or shared, solar resource<\/a> or increase their energy efficiency even more to make up for it.<\/p>\n<p>This push to make California\u2019s new housing stock run on sunshine is part of a larger trend towards electrification. However, the standard has caused an interesting debate among energy enthusiasts about whether this is the best way to meet the state\u2019s goals at the lowest cost. (Check out <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vox.com\/energy-and-environment\/2018\/5\/15\/17351236\/california-rooftop-solar-pv-panels-mandate-energy-experts\">David Roberts\u2019 Vox article<\/a> for a breakdown on the supporting and opposing arguments.) \u00a0Either way, the mandate raises exciting questions and opportunities around how California can handle all this additional solar.<\/p>\n<p><strong>New York tackles efficiency and proper solar compensation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Across the country, New York is taking a different approach to the same problem. The state adds, on average, over 30,000 new residential buildings a year. And looking at single family homes alone (10,000 of the new-buildings stock), adopting a similar mandate to California\u2019s could result in an additional 65 megawatts of additional solar for the state every year \u2013 or adding roughly 50 percent of current installed capacity over 10 years.<\/p>\n<p>Though New York may not follow California\u2019s lead by establishing similar mandates, the state has taken significant steps to lay the groundwork for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nyserda.ny.gov\/-\/media\/Files\/Programs\/NYSun\/NYS-Growth-NYSERDA-Deployed-PV.pdf\">more people to adopt solar<\/a>. In fact, over 90 percent of New York\u2019s total solar capacity is generated by distributed solar \u2013 largely rooftop panels.<\/p>\n<p>Solar is and will be a critical component for energy efficiency upgrades in buildings. To further amplify solar growth, New York is aiming to move beyond <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.edf.org\/energyexchange\/2013\/07\/24\/net-metering-and-rooftop-solar-for-the-utility-of-the-future\/\">net metering<\/a> and compensate solar owners based on the <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.edf.org\/energyexchange\/2017\/03\/15\/biting-the-biggest-apple-new-yorks-new-plan-to-reward-distributed-energy-resources\/?_ga=2.259504835.87529808.1526575955-1534729809.1524673734\">value their installation provides to the electric grid<\/a>. \u00a0This incentives the development of installations in denser areas of the state where it can provide the greatest benefit.<\/p>\n<p>The New York State Energy Research and Development Authority is currently developing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nyserda.ny.gov\/All-Programs\/Programs\/Energy-Code-Training\/NYStretch-Code-Energy-2018\">NYStretch<\/a>, a voluntary building code that can improve efficiency by 18-25 percent when applied to commercial and residential buildings. New York City will require buildings to adopt the codes in 2019, and is exploring options to eliminate fossil fuel use in buildings and reduce building energy use from all sources.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Making the energy system solar compatible <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As we move towards cleaner energy, both California and New York are grappling with how to best set up the energy system and electric grid to best utilize all of these renewable (but somewhat intermittent) power sources \u2013 something other states will face in this transition if they haven\u2019t already.<\/p>\n<p>One solution explored in both New York and California is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edf.org\/sites\/default\/files\/factsheet_time-of-use.pdf\">time-of-use electricity pricing<\/a>. This tool (if done right) offers lower prices to people when they use electricity when it\u2019s clean and cheap for utilities to provide. Time-of-use plus the new solar mandate could add up to more people storing the electricity their solar panels produce during the day to use in the afternoon and at night, when utility power is more expensive and made with dirtier sources.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, California is considering <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.edf.org\/energyexchange\/2018\/03\/09\/the-most-important-thing-california-can-do-with-its-clean-energy-could-be-to-share-it\/\">expanding its electric grid<\/a> to include utilities in other western states. By creating a bigger market for clean energy, California can use more of its large-scale solar power and sell the additional power that\u2019s currently shut off (or curtailed) when the state doesn\u2019t have enough demand for it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A future with more renewable energy<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Despite the different approaches, New York and California are, without question, committed to accelerating renewable energy.\u00a0Their experiences serve as an example for other states around the country. If other states act now, they could avoid the worst effects of climate change and the highest costs of avoiding it, while accelerating their local economies and improving the health and well-being of residents.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Rory Christian,\u00a0Lauren Navarro Cities and states are taking the initiative to address climate change independently from the federal administration.
