Join this webinar on Wednesday, June 25th at 1:00pm, for a training on best practices in planning and zoning for solar PV development and battery energy storage systems (BESS) installations. A local government’s approach to zoning and development can have a significant impact on solar energy growth. The utilization of solar energy planning and zoning best practices provides a foundation that can help facilitate the growth of solar energy, while balancing other development priorities in a community. Implementing clear and consistent solar zoning codes can improve transparency and reduce barriers to solar development. This free training will provide communities with strategies for incorporating solar into plans, ordinances, and development regulations. The training will also discuss BESS facilities, an important component of energy resilience that poses its own distinct planning and zoning needs.
