Cost shift

Draft summary, still being checked against the official bill text. Read the source to confirm.

If passed, owners of qualifying nonprofit or affordable‑housing buildings could get a cash credit for installing solar panels or storage, lowering their costs.

Our take

What we think, in plain words.

The bill could help charities and low‑income housing groups afford solar, which can cut energy bills for tenants and push clean energy forward, but it will reduce tax revenue for the state.
