Washington Policy
Washington Community Solar Program
Washington has a goal of 100% renewable and non-carbon emitting electricity resources by 2045, made possible in 2019 by SB 5116. The state has a program serving small community solar projects up to 200kW administered by Washington State University. We see Washington as an important opportunity for building upon existing programs and expanding solar deployment beyond historical levels.
