An Act to encourage solar development on built and disturbed land

This bill aims to promote solar energy projects on developed sites like parking lots, brownfields, and landfills instead of open natural areas. It achieves this by allowing larger solar systems on built land to qualify for specific net metering benefits and by directing the state to offer financial incentives for such projects. The legislation also requires the state to investigate how existing federal and state funds can support these developments and to create new incentives for repairing roofs damaged during solar installation, with a deadline for implementation or explanation by December 2024.
