The program is designed to lower electricity bills by helping homeowners get solar panels through a coordinated purchasing model.
State estimates from the rollout project average utility-cost savings of about 23% after solar installations for homes and businesses.
Governor Abigail Spanberger cast the effort as a response to high energy costs, future rate hikes and rising power demand across the Commonwealth.
