Solar Industry
I can’t tell you how many home owners who wanted solar on their home could not get it due to shade issues or their home not having the correct solar orientation. Also, I’ve had plenty of home owners with ideal solar conditions unable to get solar since their HOA would not allow it!
I believe that community solar farms are a great idea; a small community could dedicate say an acres of land for a large solar array; this will guarantee every home would have access to perfect solar conditions and it would avoid installing solar modules on individual roof tops.
Well at least U.S. Sen. Mark Udall, D-Colo thinks this is a good idea with his Solar Uniting Neighborhoods Act that would make homeowners who participate in community solar farms eligible for federal tax credits. [more]
