Program participants will benefit from the Council’s expert knowledge on solar technologies, contract terms, and financing options. They will also take advantage of a streamlined, transparent, and cohort-based solar installation process, which is simplified through the Council’s technical assistance. Program participation requires renting, at market rate, a limited number of units to low-income households through the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher program.
