Clean Energy Works On Home Batteries
Battery storage is a newer part of residential clean energy, and is slowly becoming an important way for homes to manage power. We use batteries every day, whether in our phones, laptops, or cars. Now that same technology is being installed in Wisconsin homes to help families stay resilient during outages and make the most of the solar energy they produce, even after the sun goes down.

Agrivoltaics: Research and Opportunities for Wisconsin
As we continue to find ways that clean energy can integrate into our homes, businesses, and communities, we are realizing there are many great opportunities to say “yes-and” when it comes to renewable energy. One such idea is to develop solar energy in a way that allows agricultural activity to happen around it, known as Agrivoltaics. This is why you might hear some people call it a “yes-and” approach. This is one of those opportunities where we can, yes, use land to produce solar energy, and use that same land for agricultural purposes. Some research has even indicated that the solar panels are able to create ideal conditions for crops.
