An Act relative to solar permitting

This bill streamlines solar permitting for residential and commercial installations in Massachusetts. It requires local agencies to accept electronic permit applications, online payments, and digital signatures, with applications deemed complete after 5 business days if no corrections are requested. If no action is taken within 10 business days after being deemed complete, the permit is automatically approved, allowing installation to begin. The bill also limits inspections to one per system and prohibits utility companies from demanding additional inspections before allowing systems to operate.
