Bridging The Solar Energy Gap Through Federal Assistance Programs

NREL Supported the Development of New U.S. Department of Energy Resources to Expand the Reach of Solar Energy Through Assistance Funds for Low-Income HouseholdsNREL researchers helped develop resources for program implementers to assess which solar implementation pathways to pursue, including rooftop solar, community solar, solar water heaters, and intergovernmental program partnerships.

A new technical report and other resources developed by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory aim to help state and local organizations address the PV access gap.

The report also identifies the most common challenges with including solar in WAP and LIHEAP, including limited funding to cover the full costs of solar installation and limited staff capacity to develop new initiatives in the programs. NREL researchers found that to address these challenges, partnerships with utilities, solar installers, community solar organizations, other state agencies, and subgrantees are key.
