Service upgrades, EV chargers, and heat pump installs are the clearest electrification signals in any county. Tradewinds observes them in county permit records, tied to the property behind each filing.
A panel upgrade is the physical prerequisite for solar, storage, and EV charging. It is filed months before the install it enables.
A dedicated charger circuit marks a household already spending on electrification, with the panel headroom to add more.
Swapping a fossil system for a heat pump raises electric load, which is the argument for generation and storage on the same roof.
The array permit names the installer and the system size, which is the competitive picture for the county in one record.
