Why These Regulatory Changes Matter and How You Can Take Advantage

Despite these positive developments, many are still unaware that the limitations have been removed, often because the details are buried deep within each state’s legal regulations. SOEN is committed to educating both installers and investors to fully exploit these new opportunities.

Removing restrictions translates to:

  • Time and Cost Savings – Eliminating the need for extra permits means projects can be completed more quickly and at lower cost.
  • Increased Flexibility – Larger solar panel modules, such as Trina Solar Vertex S+ NEG18R.28, offer more versatile and efficient design options.
  • Accelerated ROI – Fewer formalities result in faster commissioning of installations, which speeds up profit generation.
