Topic of Discussion:  Exciting updates on the 51st State Solar Co-op!

What is the Solat For All Program put out by DOEE and what are 80% median income levels to qualify for the program?

The First Round 35 participants currently have proposals from Edge. If you received your proposal and have any questions or concerns as you consider it please do not hesitate to reach out! I'd be happy to review the proposal with you.

The second round of the 51st State Solar Co-op is now open for sign ups.

52 participants have signed contracts and are in the process of going solar! 20 of these contracts are for participants of Solar for All. Solar for All is the grant we received from the district's Department of Energy and Environment to help low to moderate income households in DC go solar for free. We are excited to hear about how these installs are going.
