"This book shows the sizzling future of clean energy with enough enthusiasm to dispel the doom-and-gloom that paralyzes most discussions of climate change.”

Durwood Zaelke, President, Institute for Global Governance and Sustainable Development.

“Today, solar is the fastest-growing source of renewable energy in America. That’s not by fluke. Tam Hunt’s new book offers important insights into solar energy’s amazing success story—and why solar is so important to our nation’s future.”

Rhone Resch, President & CEO, Solar Energy Industries Association (the largest U.S. solar industry association).

"Of all renewable energy sources, solar is the most abundant and will play a major role in the conversion of the world's energy infrastructure to a clean and renewable one. Tam Hunt's book is easy to read and understand and is key for helping to educate the public and policymakers about solar's part in this energy revolution."

Prof. Mark Jacobson, Director of Stanford University’s Atmosphere/Energy Program.

"Tam's new book is a readable and engaging look at the inter-twined solar, electric vehicle and battery storage revolutions, from an insider with over a decade of experience in policy debates and battles in California, one of the centers for developments in these exciting new fields."

Terry Tamminen, Former Secretary, California Environmental Protection Agency, and current President of Seventh Generation Advisors.

"Tam Hunt's new book, Solar: Why Our Energy Future Is So Bright, reveals that we are closer to solving our current energy crisis - getting off of fossil fuels before we roast the planet - than most of us have imagined. It is exciting to read such a technically grounded work of optimism."

Daniel Pinchbeck, founder of the Center for Planetary Culture and author of Breaking Open the Head.

Solar power is taking off as the price of solar is falling dramatically in the U.S. and around the world. We are not far from the point at which solar is so cheap that it becomes the default new power source in a majority of countries. This is what Tam Hunt calls the "solar singularity." When this occurs we will see grids around the world transform rapidly, helped by other technologies such as energy storage to store excess renewable energy and keep the grid stable. At the same time, the electric vehicle revolution is well underway, with many cheap and long-range electric vehicles coming in just a couple of years. These three technologies will roll forward together in the coming decades, creating a greener and more distributed grid. This book examines these ongoing revolutions in detail and also offers some insight for those looking to invest in this promising future. The solar singularity is nigh!
