The Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection released its final plan to advance in-state solar development, with a goal to achieve a 10 percent increase in solar-powered electricity by 2030 from the current level of less than one percent. The state would have to install about 11 gigawatts of solar capacity to reach the goal, up from 300 megawatts. The plan identifies strategies such as raising the solar carve-out in the alternative portfolio standard, implementing carbon pricing, expanding customer access to capital, adopting uniform siting policies, and providing tax incentives to favor solar deployment. The department said that renewable energy innovations will lower pollution from electricity generation, which accounts for 33 percent of the state’s emissions.
