A proposed roadmap for solar energy development has been introduced to expand efficient and environmentally responsible solar projects across the United States.
The proposed Western Solar Plan builds on the Investing in America agenda to achieve a 100-percent clean electricity grid by 2035.
The plan would make public lands across 11 western states available for potential solar development, driving development closer to transmission lines or disturbed lands and avoiding protected lands, sensitive cultural resources, and essential wildlife habitat.
The plan updates and expands the original 2012 Western Solar Plan to reflect changes in technology and meet the higher demand for solar energy development.
