DELAWARE HAS BEEN SUCCESSFUL IN PROMOTING THE DEPLOYMENT OF SOLAR ENERGY AMONG HOUSEHOLDS THAT HAVE ACCESS TO THE CAPITAL NEEDED TO INVEST IN ROOFTOP SOLAR. THIS PROGRAM IS DESIGNED TO EXTEND THIS OPPORTUNITY TO HOUSEHOLDS THAT WOULD OTHERWISE BE EXCLUDED FROM INVESTING IN AND OWNING RESIDENTIAL ROOFTOP SOLAR. SUCCESS OF THE PROGRAM AND ITS IMPACT ON DELAWARE COMMUNITIES WILL BE MEASURED BY THE NUMBER OF INSTALLATIONS COMPLETED IN LMI HOUSEHOLDS, INSTALLATIONS LOCATED IN UNDERSERVED COMMUNITIES, SOLAR CAPACITY INSTALLED IN KILOWATTS (KW), AND THE RESULTS IN REDUCTION OF GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS AND ENERGY BILLS. AS A RESULT, THE PILOT PROGRAM CAN EXPAND BEYOND A SINGLE UTILITY’S CUSTOMERS IN THE FUTURE. THIS INCREASED DEMAND IN RENEWABLE ENERGY WILL BE MET WITH GROWTH IN SOLAR ENERGY EDUCATION THAT THE PROGRAM WILL PROVIDE
