(Note: very light
refreshments, but
no dinner!)</span><br>
<br>
<span
style="font-size:
10pt;">SB 843
allows utility
customers who are
renters, or who do
not have an
appropriate roof
for hosting solar
panels, to invest
in or lease a
portion of a
shared solar
facility in their
region. Investors
receive the credit
from their share
of the electricity
produced, as if
the panels were
located on their
own rooftops. SB
843 is similar to
Colorado's
Community Solar
Gardens Act and
Washington's
Community Solar
Enabling Act.</span><br>
<br>
<span

<span
style="font-size:

this
legislation—its
pros and cons—and
about the
experiences of
other states. Can
this bill lead to
an expansion of
local renewable
energy? Should we
support SB 843?
Can we strengthen
or improve the
bill?<br>
