The Environmental Protection Agency has released funds for solar installation programs across the country. State agencies had been able to access the funds only intermittently after the federal agency froze the funds last month.
The EPA awarded North Carolina $156 million to launch EnergizeNC to expand residential solar access among low- to moderate-income communities. The group administering the program announced yesterday that the funds had been received, and it would begin planning the expansion of residential solar in the state.
