  • Testimony of David Gahl, Director of State Affairs, Northeast Solar Energy Industries Association
    TESTIMONY OF DAVID GAHL, DIRECTOR OF STATE AFFAIRS, NORTHEAST SOLAR ENERGY INDUSTRIES ASSOCIATION ON MULTIPLE BILLS RELATED TO NET ENERGY METERING AND SOLAR MATTERS (S.1824/H.2712, S. 1835, S.1842, S.1873) JOINT HEARING OF THE TELECOMMUNICATIONS, UTILITIES AND ENERGY COMMITTEE October 3, 2017 My name is David Gahl and I am the Director of State Affairs, Northeast for the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA). Thank you for the opportunity to present testimony on these bills. The Solar Energy Industries Association is the national trade association of the U.S. solar energy industry, which now employs more than 260,000 Americans. Through advocacy and education, SEIA is building a strong solar industry to power America. SEIA works with its 1,000 member companies to build jobs and diversity, champion the use of cost-competitive solar in America, remove market barriers and educate the public on the benefits of solar energy. There are 45 SEIA member companies with an operating address in Massachusetts working in all market segments as well as many more solar companies from around the country who have local employees and do business in the Commonwealth. SEIA member companies provide solar panels and equipment, financing and other services to a large portion of Massachusetts solar projects. SEIA strongly supports legislation to raise the state’s aggregate net energy metering (NEM) caps contained in S.1824/H.2712 and recommends the legislature passes a bill raising the caps this calendar year. Page 1 of 25 My testimony today discusses the state of the solar market in Massachusetts, explains why net metering remains a bedrock solar policy in the Commonwealth, makes the case to raise the statewide NEM caps by 5 percent this year, and describes 124 stalled solar projects currently awaiting a net metering cap allocation worth more than $78 million.
