Press release from the City of Fredericksburg: July 22, 2021 Fredericksburg Clean & Green Commission in partnership with LEAP launches Solarize Fredericksburg to make residential solar more accessible to homeowners in the Fredericksburg Region Fredericksburg, Virginia – The Solarize Fredericksburg program runs July 20 to September 15 in the City of Fredericksburg and the surrounding area. Adding solar power to your home is easier and more affordable than ever, thanks to Solarize Virginia, a program that reduces the cost and complexity of going solar by providing a one-stop shop for education and installation. This grassroots, community-based outreach initiative is managed by the Local Energy Alliance Program (LEAP) and presented in partnership with the Fredericksburg Clean & Green Commission. Through a competitive bidding process, LEAP has named Ipsun Solar as their selected campaign installer for 2021. Since 2014, 546 contracts have been signed through LEAP's Solarize program across the state, generating more than 4.3 MW of solar capacity and over $12 million in value. Through September 15, residents can sign up to receive a free solar satellite assessment, and gain access to discounted prices and vetted installers. LEAP provides ongoing customer support and education throughout the process to make the experience as streamlined as possible. More information is available to all community members at SolarizeVA.org; all are encouraged to join upcoming virtual information sessions as well.
