Our Mission

 SI2  is committed to accelerating  clean energy  by raising public awareness, advancing smart policy, and delivering solutions that enable widespread adoption of solar and storage.

SI2 is a 501(c)3 nonprofit and is the research and education arm of the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA).

Areas of Expertise

The solar and storage industry is growing at an exponential pace. Experts at SI2 are supporting this progress with cutting-edge research focused on addressing existing barriers and opening new pathways for project deployment 

SI2 is at the forefront of identifying evidence-based policy solutions to address the systemic challenges facing the solar and storage industry and that reflect individual communities’ and stakeholders’ needs.

The ability to connect solar and storage systems to the grid quickly and efficiently is essential to scaling solar projects across the nation. SI2 is actively working to streamline the interconnection process.

As solar continues to expand, farmland has become an attractive option for project siting. By integrating solar with agriculture, farms across the country demonstrate how agrivoltaics benefit their operations and local economies.
