Highlights

  • There were 25.8% of the respondents who said they had a high level of concern with their utility about outages during storms.
  • While 21.2% of the overall sample said they were likely to buy a DER, the northeast had the most respondents (36.3%) likely to purchase one.
  • Just over a quarter (26.0%) said they were likely to ask their utility about solar power.
  • A review of findings from March to November 2021 revealed a decrease in the level of high concern from all-time highs of 30.0% in both September and October to 25.8% in November. However, there was a substantial increase in respondents who said they were likely to buy a DER from 16.9% in October to an all-time high of 21.2% in November. Another jump in those saying they would ask their utilities about solar power was seen in November to a nine-month high of 26.0%.
