As Pilot Rooftop Solar Program In Georgia Nears Its Limit, Advocates Push For It To Expand

Solar power companies and advocates are urging Georgia regulators to expand a program that makes rooftop solar panels more cost-effective. The pilot program with Georgia Power has turned out to be so popular that it’s about to get maxed out.

The program allows people to get more money for the electricity generated by the solar panels on their roofs. It was approved in 2019 and launched last year.

In the past couple months, it’s really taken off.
