Louisa County: Public Education and Solar Development

Virginia localities are experiencing a surge in applications for solar and energy storage projects due to growing demand for clean energy. This trend is prompting many areas to revisit their policies and regulations. While community engagement is standard practice for policy development, the unique challenges of solar and emerging energy technologies may require more targeted engagement to ensure policies align with stakeholders' priorities and garner community support.
This video highlights Louisa County’s exemplary public education campaign regarding solar energy. Through releasing this case study, we hope to encourage and empower other localities to create their own solar education materials.
