Community Solar Development Training Series

The Center for Impact Finance offers a variety of trainings in community solar development as part of the Community Power Accelerator program at the U.S. Department of Energy. These trainings prepare community-based organizations, small or new solar developers, and others to develop, finance, and build "credit-ready" community solar projects that benefit low-income and disadvantaged communities.
The instructor-led course is part of the National Community Solar Partnership, a national effort funded by the U.S. Department of Energy to capture the benefits of community solar. By completing the instructor-led training, you will become part of a national network of developers, financiers, and community organizations. Read more about the Community Power Accelerator Prize and its online marketplace that connects owners, developers, lenders, and philanthropists to support more equitable deployment of community solar.
