SEN. CHANG-DÍ​AZ TESTIFIES ON BEHALF OF MBLLC IN SUPPORT OF SOLAR EQUITY

6/25/2019

0 Comments

 
On Tuesday, June 25, 2019 Senator Sonia Chang-Dí​az testified in support of solar power equity legislation filed by herself and Representative Russell Holmes. Alongside MBLLC colleague Rep. Nika Elugardo, Sen. Chang-Dí​az spoke about the goal to ensure that all communities in the Commonwealth have access to solar energy.

The bill would do so by providing fair compensation for renters and low-moderate income residents, by incentivizing developers to build community solar projects, and by allowing municipal solar to remain at retail rate compensation when delivering savings to low-income private consumers.
 
Titled "An Act relative to solar power in environmental justice and urban communities" and filed as H2877 / S1931, the legislation is one of two bills in the Caucus' new Climate/Environmental Justice legislative priorities category.
