Bill overview
This bill, the Promoting Renewable Energy with Shared Solar Act of 2019, aims to make it easier for communities to develop and participate in solar energy projects. It amends the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act (PURPA) to require electric utilities to provide interconnection and net billing services for ‘community solar facilities,’ which are solar systems shared by multiple consumers. The bill directs state regulatory bodies and utilities to establish rules for these facilities, ensuring they can connect to the power grid and receive credit for the energy they produce.
