The Department of Environmental Protection published notice in the July 7 PA Bulletin inviting comments on a draft Plan to increase solar electric generation to 10 percent of Pennsylvania’s electric consumption by 2030.
The draft Plan was developed through the Finding Pennsylvania’s Solar Future stakeholder process involving over 500 participants who helped explore the likely pathways to achieving the 2030 target by modeling the economic, environmental and health factors of different policy recommendations across different sections in the state.
The Plan looks at potential changes to the Alternative Energy Portfolio Standards, Carbon Pricing, Siting and Land Use, Tax Incentives, Access to Capital, Grid Modernization, Contracting, Virtual Net Metering, Community Solar, Alternative Ratemaking, Property Assessed Clean Energy and Addressing Interconnection Issues.
