TL;DR Summary

The Biden administration has announced the largest community solar effort in US history, which will power 140,000 homes and businesses in Illinois, Maine, and Maryland. The deal was announced during Vice President Kamala Harris' visit to the Qcells solar panel factory in Georgia. The project will require the manufacturing of 2.5 million solar panels at Qcells' plant in Dalton, Georgia, and will be made possible by tax credits in the Inflation Reduction Act. Community solar projects allow people to tap into solar power generated at a shared site rather than on individual rooftops and are a way for renters and those without access to rooftop solar panels to receive the benefits of clean energy.
