Why PACE?

• No money out of pocket
• Cash-flow positive on day one

• The property owner repays the cost of upgrades through a

special assessment placed on the building

SOLAR FOR ALL

Solar for All is intended to expand solar capacity in the District and to provide the benefits of locally-generated solar energy to small businesses, nonprofits, seniors, and low-income households.

@DOEE_DC

Short-term actions to help achieve Solar for All goals include grants, strategic partnerships, zoning and building code improvements, real estate mapping, public engagement and education, enrollment in community solar projects, and establishment of a District Green Bank.
