Summary

This legislation increases access to Delaware's existing community solar program by expanding geographic eligibility requirements of the program. The legislation also ensures 15% of all community solar facilities provide savings to low-to-moderate income households, and enables community solar facilities to reach 5 megawatts in size, which will maximize solar savings and grow the number of homes that can subscribe to a program.
