Clean Energy

Clean energy isn't just good for Georgia's air and water. It's also the cheapest power we can add to the grid. Peter has spent his career proving it, and now he's voting like it.

Solar plus storage.

Utility-scale solar paired with battery storage is the lowest-cost new power available to Georgia. Peter fights for resource plans that choose it on the merits instead of defaulting to what's expensive and familiar. Unfortunately, utilities often put their thumb on the scale and fail to accurately measure the return on investment solar can bring; especially when their parent company owns natural gas companies too.

Unleash Distributed Resources.

Georgians who put solar on their own roofs should get fair credit for the power they share with their neighbors. Peter supports fair net metering so energy independence is a real option for homeowners, small businesses, churches, and farms. 

Equally important, though, is leveling the playing field so that our cities and counties can help get new solar and battery storage online quickly to meet rising demand. This is a win-win-win. It saves local governments money, lowering your tax burden, while investing in the supply chain that Georgia already has: no more expensive tariffs on imported materials. We can shop local.

Efficiency and Weatherization.

The fastest way to cut a power bill is to waste less power. Peter champions efficiency and weatherization programs that lower bills directly. He wants to invest in these further and prioritize the low-income households carrying the heaviest energy burdens in the state.
