SUMMARY:Solar Guidebook for Pennsylvania Landowners:  Leasing Property for Large-Scale Solar Development 
DESCRIPTION:Solar is one of the fastest-growing energy sources in the world. According to the Solar Energy Industries Association\, the U.S. solar industry is on target to add a record-breaking 32 gigawatts of new solar capacity to the grid in 2023\, which is 50% more than it added last year. Due to several policy incentives and the fact that large-scale solar is now the least expensive form of electricity\, energy companies around the world are expanding their solar operations through large-scale and community solar operations. Many of them have their eyes set on Pennsylvania due to its abundance of land and proximity to electricity transmission lines. That’s why the Pennsylvania Solar Center and Fair Shake Environmental Legal Services have teamed up to develop a Guidebook for Landowners to navigate Pennsylvania’s growing solar markets.   \n\n\n\n\n\nOrganizer\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue
