Virginia expands community solar access from 250 MW to 875 MW

Virginia is scaling up community solar after strong demand from households and developers. Canary Media reports that Dominion must make another 525 MW of shared solar available beginning this summer, while Appalachian Power will add 100 MW and improve billing practices. The policy could help the state move from a limited subscription program toward a broader affordability tool for customers who cannot install rooftop solar.
