An article from the New York Times highlights the innovative approaches that some states and communities are taking to develop solar energy resources. High cost and lack of space for installation hinder many people who would like to install solar panels to produce electricity. The article by Diane Cardwell describes how cooperative ventures can help overcome those obstacles.
State action in support of the venutes helps. Many states discussed in the article (California, Colorado, Massachusetts, and New York) have adopted Renewable Portfolio Standards that require or encourage electric utilities to provide a certain portion of their electricity from renewable sources. Kentucky, Tennessee, and Georgia are among the states that have not adopted a Renewable Portfolio Standard. These and other states offer a variety of energy-related incentives, however.
The content of this article is intended to provide a general guide to the subject matter. Specialist advice should be sought about your specific circumstances.
