Checking back in with Greenlight America
Greenlight America's local-advocacy model has scaled to 67 GW of clean energy advanced as an IRA-driven construction sprint compresses years of deployment into 2025-2028.
- Explosive growth: Greenlight America grew from 20 staff / 4.4 GW advanced in 2024 to ~90 staff, almost $20M raised in 2025, and 67 gigawatts advanced cumulatively (55.7 GW since January 2025), with win rates rising from 60% (pilot) to 75% (2025) to 79% (2026 so far).
- IRA sprint and cliff: OBBBA phased out wind/solar tax credits, forcing developers to start construction by July 2025 and go into service by end-2029; Wood Mackenzie estimates 216-240 GW of solar plus ~20 GW of wind now 'safe harbored,' far above the historical ~50 GW/year pace, with industry sources expecting only a modest 20-30% temporary dip after 2028.
