Plugged In: How The IRA Is Changing Housing In America
The average American home generates roughly 10 thousand kilowatt hours of electricity every year according to the Energy Information Administration.
Millions of Americans are transitioning to solar energy. A Pew Research poll last year found 8 percent of households have solar installed already and 39 percent said they're considering making the switch.
But the expensive upfront cost of installing solar (on average $16,000 to $23,000) has kept a lot of people from making the switch.
We discuss available options for homeowners and renters.
