discussed in 2025’s conversation with Utah Rep. Raymond Ward, who spearheaded changing the law in his state to allow so-called balcony solar, this is a widely popular appliance in Germany that can and should be commercialized in the U.S. Cora Stryker and Bright Saver have been working to advance policies like Utah’s and there is now action in over 30 states to pave the way for balcony solar.
A serial founder of several mission-driven organizations and the co-founder of Bright Saver, an organization whose mission is simply to help Americans save on electricity bills by making plug-in solar affordable and accessible to all, Cora is a strong believer that market-driven solutions to climate change will enable the transition to a clean and equitable economy. She works tirelessly to make clean energy solutions better, faster, and cheaper than the dirty fossils that drove the energy economy of the past.
