SEIA is engaged with policymakers at the regulatory and legislative levels in Washington, D.C. and across the country to establish supportive policy frameworks that allow solar to compete in the marketplace and offer cost-competitive, reliable energy to consumers.

• Rooftop Solar: There are a wide variety of policies at the state and local level that impact distributed solar and its customers.
• Utility-Scale Solar: By enacting federal and state-level policies to accelerate the growth of utility-scale solar, we can create jobs nationwide and quickly diversify America’s energy portfolio.
• Community Solar: Community solar has become a critical tool for bridging the gap between those who can and can`t access local, affordable, clean energy.
• Regulatory Policy: With the rapid growth in solar energy deployment necessary to decarbonize our economy, the industry faces new and quickly evolving needs and challenges across a wide variety of federal regulatory agencies
• Tax Policy: The market certainty provided by the long-term solar ITC has supported private investment in manufacturing and project construction, a vital part in meeting our nation`s energy policy goals.
• State Policy: SEIA`s state team works across the country to help pass strong solar and storage policies that help grow local solar markets.
