Dreams feel different than reality. Reality feels more real.

Unless there is another deeper layer of reality that feels even more real that I have forgotten in this dream. Can’t really rule that one out.

I’m not sure but I don’t see any reason to restrict them.

Ah that is a good point! So then why so little utility solar? Maybe less open land to build it on?

Wow interesting. Maybe in more arid climates there is less opposition because there’s fewer trees to preserve? Otherwise I can’t imagine why it would be interesting.

I haven’t heard any backlash against batteries here although there has been some against large solar projects.

I don’t think that’s it. I’ll speak to California since that’s where I live. Most people live on the coast where AC usage is not high and most furnaces run on gas, not electricity. So I don’t think this explains a lack of battery uptake in the Northeast. There is still a lot of demand for electricity, it’s just being met by other sources.

Edit: I looked it up an CA has one of the lowest per capita electricity rates in the country: https://greeninnovationindex.org/2025-edition/energy-efficiency/figure-52/

Seems a little weird to me the northeast is so far behind. I mean yes they have less solar potential but not that much less.

Low on mobile data? What is this, 2012?
