Cities, counties, and regional organizations across the U.S. can tap into free technical assistance and resources from the SolSmart program and our partners to accelerate solar adoption. This fall, we’re excited to offer several webinars to guide municipal staff in implementing solar best practices and progressing towards SolSmart designation. All webinars are eligible for CEUs:
