In Colorado, renewable energy generating capacity has more than quadrupled since 2010 [2]. On the other end of the electric grid, advanced technologies can help reduce the amount of energy that is required for basic services like lighting, heating, and cooling. Renewables have a critical role to play in greening our electric grid.
