Episode 7: Solar's transformational power for rural communities
Show Notes

We’re shining a light on the impact of solar in Tennessee. The International Energy Agency’s Renewables 2022 report predicts that in the next few years, the biggest source of electricity will be solar power. Meanwhile, the Inflation Reduction Act will usher in more high-paying solar jobs and tax credits for solar installations at homes, businesses and community solar projects. But what does this all mean for Tennesseans? 

Today, we’re speaking with Matt Kisber, Chairman of the Board at Silicon Ranch Corporation, about how this Nashville solar development company grew into a billion-dollar powerhouse. We’ll discuss innovative solar projects, how solar can transform rural communities and the outlook for the industry in our state.
