Suncast talks with Kerim Baran and Andrew “Birchy” Birch of OpenSolar re what’s really slowing down solar in the U.S.—and what it will take to fix it. They look at permitting delays, trade tariffs, utility friction and talk about how tech is not the issue. Topics of discussion:

• Why open trade could accelerate clean energy AND grow jobs
• How we can get to $1/Watt installs in the U.S.
• What’s broken in permitting—and how SolarApp could solve it
• How distributed energy systems could save the grid, not stress it
