CESA – Deploying Solar for Manufactured Homes in Colorado
Manufactured homes, formerly known as mobile homes, comprise over 6% of the country’s housing stock and represent an even larger share of housing for low-and-moderate-income (LMI) families. Community solar projects have seen success across the country in bringing the benefits of solar to LMI homeowners, including those living in manufactured housing. However, because of cost and trust issues, it can be difficult for developers to deploy community solar to LMI households living in manufactured homes.
In this Clean Energy States Alliance webinar, panelists will share information about a community solar project being developed by Holy Cross Energy (HCE), a rural electric cooperative in Colorado, that will benefit manufactured homes residents, including information on how the project has come to be, the programs and incentives utilized to support the project, how newly available Inflation Reduction Act incentives are being used to expand the project, how this project could be replicated and scaled up to benefit more mobile home residents throughout HCE’s service area, and more.
