Duke Energy has enrolled more than 1,300 North Carolina customers in its PowerPair pilot, a one-time incentive-based program designed to help make home solar plus BESS more affordable.
Approved by the North Carolina Utilities Commission in January and launched in May, the pilot program offers up to $9,000 in incentives for residential customers installing a new solar plus BESS. The total incentive is based on the approved capacity of the solar array and battery installed.
“North Carolina already ranks fourth in the nation for overall solar power with approximately 45,000 Duke Energy customers generating about 350 MW through solar panels,” says Meghan Dewey, vice president of products and services for Duke Energy.
“PowerPair is a valuable solution for our customers ready to invest in solar plus storage for their homes. It is one of several ways we’re helping our customers save energy and money, while continuing to explore new ways to help manage low carbon grids of the future.”

Blaise Pascal, Renaissance Man–Literally
I have such respect for Pascal that I considered naming our son after him. (My wife wasn’t having it. Maybe if we lived in France?)
Pascal made important contributions to both math and physics but he’s perhaps best known for his philosophic “wager,” that it makes sense to believe in God, since if He exists, you’ll be very glad you did, and if He doesn’t, you haven’t lost anything. I counter that this is not how we accept or reject religious tenets.

Howard Stern Has No Respect for Trump Supporters
“Republican Patriots” writes: Howard Stern once again reveals the contempt so many in the entertainment elite hold for everyday Americans. He claims not to hate President Trump himself, but openly declares his hatred for those who support him, calling them stupid and saying he has no respect for them. This kind of arrogant dismissal shows how out of touch these Hollywood types have become with the hardworking people who built this country.
I’ve got news: contempt for Trump supporters is hardly limited to “these Hollywood types.” The vast majority of Americans–especially at this point–are neither greedy pigs nor hateful morons. We respect human rights and rule of law.
