We are excited to announce that today, CCSA and @SEIA are combining organizations to create a more unified and stronger force for #CommunitySolar and #EnergyStorage! Follow @SEIA for the latest on community & distributed solar policy. Learn more: communitysolaraccess.org/new…
Thankful to @arseniomataka for sharing our message about the importance of #AB1813 to California’s renewable energy future and energy affordability for residents and businesses across the state. Looking forward to seeing CA take this important step for Californians and the grid.
California is playing catch up.
New York, Illinois and Maryland have already built community solar markets that bring clean energy closer to where people live and work. #AB1813 gives California a chance to catch up by finally valuing the full benefits of community solar and storage.
In Illinois, Rock Cut Solar serves 690 households. Of those subscribers, 20% qualify for Illinois Shines, a state program that lowers monthly electric bills by 50%. Yes…50%.
California should be leading, not following.

CA's energy bills are rising & millions are still locked out of affordable solar. AB 1813 will expand access to community solar & storage, lower utility bills & enhance grid resiliency. Send a letter to the CA Gov to show your support via @localenergyca localenergyca.org/take-actio…
A major step forward for community solar in California 🌞 This past weekend, the CA Senate passed AB 1813, bringing the state one step closer to delivering a community solar and storage program to benefit the state. Learn more via @SolarPowerWorld: solarpowerworldonline.com/20…
As @freed_man wrote about in @Capitol_Weekly, it's time for California to prioritize solar+storage legislation. #AB1813 would help the state strengthen its grid while supporting energy affordability for those who need it most. Learn more: capitolweekly.net/california…
New @kevalaanalytics study: CA's distribution grid can absorb 17.5+ GW of front-of-the-meter solar+storage, like community solar, during critical summer peak hours — 32% of expected utility peak demand, with no transmission backfeed: communitysolaraccess.org/new…
A new study from the @UCLAIoES highlights the many benefits that #CommunitySolar will bring to California, and why the state is lagging on progress. The report identifies AB 1813 as the next step in supporting community solar expansion: ioes.ucla.edu/article/califo…
Energy bills are rising in CA, and millions are locked out of affordable solar energy because they are unable to put solar panels on their own rooftops. AB 1813 enables energy savings and reliability for all. Lend your support: localenergyca.org/take-actio… via @localenergyca
ICYMI: The New Mexico PRC approved the next phase of the state’s community solar program. CCSA applauds this next step, and encourages the commission to accelerate the next RFP to support widespread energy savings, particularly for LMI communities: communitysolaraccess.org/new…
Last night, the MA Senate passed an energy affordability bill designed to save residents $14B over the next 10 years while advancing local clean energy. We applaud the chamber for their dedication in advancing clean energy access and affordability: communitysolaraccess.org/new…
ICYMI, legislation in Virginia is making #CommunitySolar more accessible. "‘We were grateful that community solar was recognized as part of the affordability solution.” Learn more via @CanaryMediaInc
