Plugged In: How The IRA Is Changing Housing In America

Description: The average American home generates roughly 10 thousand kilowatt hours of electricity every year according to the Energy Information Administration.

Millions of Americans are transitioning to solar energy. A Pew Research poll last year found 8 percent of households have solar installed already and 39 percent said they're considering making the switch.

But the expensive upfront cost of installing solar (on average $16,000 to $23,000) has kept a lot of people from making the switch.

We discuss available options for homeowners and renters.
