Overview of the Solar Industry 15 years ago
In the podcast, Mike Hall, co-founder of Anza Renewables, reflects on the solar industry 15 years ago. At that time, the US solar industry was small, with annual installs of only around one megawatt, making it an $8 million industry. The industry was just starting to move away from its off-grid hippie grower market roots and transitioning into contributing to the power mix.
