State of Washington Department of Commerce is now accepting applications for funding to entities/organizations with clean energy projects in a rural area from the Rural Clean Energy program. 

The new Washington Department of Commerce Solar plus Storage for Resilient Communities program provides funding and technical assistance to support solar and battery storage systems at community buildings.

A proposal for a low-income solar energy program was passed by the Legislature and signed into law on March 30, 2022.  House Bill 1814 funds a revised version of Washington’s exhausted solar energy incentive program. In addition to solar for low-income households and service providers, the new program may also fund community solar subscriptions for low-income recipients.
