Synapse Energy Economics

How to Accelerate Renewable Energy Adoption through Transparent‬‭ Data, Processes, and Regulation Synapse collaborated with Electrify DC and Redwood Energy to assess how Pepco’s aging grid and limited transparency are hindering rooftop solar adoption in Washington, DC. Mandated by the DC Council, ...

Pepco’s aging grid and limited transparency are making it harder for DC residents to go solar. Synapse, @electrifydc.bsky.social, and Redwood Energy found high costs, delays, and misleading grid data blocking rooftop solar growth.

Opinion: How federal policy threatens CT’s proven wind success new federal policy aimed at halting wind energy development is having a direct and negative impact on states like Connecticut.

How are new federal actions reshaping the future of offshore wind in Connecticut? Synapse found offshore wind could cut New England electricity bills up to $1.7B annually under high gas price scenarios, while also reducing emissions and improving public health.
