Welcome to the 257 Blog!

Data is Power! At 257, we believe that accelerating residential electrification starts with better data and better conversations about how to use it. We’re launching this blog as a space to share insights, stories, and tools that help energy innovators move faster.

Here, you’ll find a mix of content designed to keep you informed and inspired:

• Product features that show how our platform evolves to meet your needs.

• How-to guides with practical steps for using data to improve acquisition and outreach.

• Deep dives into the capabilities that make our digital twin of U.S. homes so powerful.

• Client case studies highlighting how utilities, solar providers, and HVAC companies are transforming customer acquisition and engagement.

• Thought pieces exploring big questions in the energy transition — from solar density to heat pump adoption trends.

• Commentary on current news, connecting industry headlines to on-the-ground opportunities.

Whether you’re a utility planner, a solar marketer, or simply curious about the future of energy, we want this to be a valuable resource.

This is just the beginning, thanks for stopping by and we’re glad you’re here.
