A new solar energy bill in the US state of Georgia has been submitted, “Rural Georgia Economic Recovery and Solar Resource Act of 2014.” This bill would create a new model for generation and distribution of electricity, allowing the Public Service Commission to authorize and establish a rural community solar initiative and oversee and manage the expansion of solar energy in the state.
One of the key backers of the bill is Georgia Solar Utilities, who, like other third-party companies, will be able to submit proposals to the Public Service Commission for financing and aggregating solar.
