VCEA – Major Regulatory Changes
• Requires State Corporation Commission (SCC) to consider the social cost of carbon in any application to construct new generating facility
• The SCC must ensure development of new energy resources or facilities does not have disproportionate adverse impact on historically economically disadvantaged communities (HEDCs)
• Establishes a Percentage of Income Payment Program (PIPP) for low-income households to provide an alternative payment structure

Virginia Solar Industry – COVID-19 Impacts
CLEAN ENERGY VIRGINIA
The COVID-19 Pandemic has caused significant economic damage to solar companies in Virginia:
• Through June of 2020, the Virginia solar industry will employ 12,804 workers, rather than the 14,819 that was originally forecasted
• The Virginia solar industry will install 292.7 megawatts (MW) of capacity in Q2 2020, 19% less solar capacity than pre-COVID forecasts
The U.S. solar industry as a whole will face significant reductions:
• Through June 2020, there will be 38% fewer solar workers nationwide than pre-COVID forecasts
• The U.S. solar industry will install just 3 GW of solar in Q2 2020, 37% less than pre-COVID forecasts
• Q2 losses will result in $3.2 billion not invested in the U.S. economy in 2020
![Page 20: Welcome to Clean Energy Virginia Webinar Series...Dominion Energy: 40% by 2030; 100% by 2045 Appalachian Power: 30% by 2030; 100% by 2050 • Establishes a mandatory energy efficiency](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022050507/5f984c7a0e1c604a4d02b4d6/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
U.S. Solar PV Growth Forecast
CLEAN ENERGY VIRGINIA
After 2% market decline in 2018 attributed to tariff
impacts, utility-scale growth resumed in 2019 with
more than 13 GW installed.
Coronavirus is expected to lead to a 31% decline in
2020 distributed markets, but most utility-scale work
has continued, and a record pipeline will carry the
industry to record deployment in 2020.
Beyond 2020, the pandemic places all market segments
in considerable uncertainty, resulting in a downward
revision of 3.6 GW to the 2020 – 2025 forecasts.
Growth will be contingent on economic recovery to
include consumer/business demand and financial
market stability.

What happens if there are not enough DG RECs?
For example, in 2027:
• Dominion must purchase 215,000 DG RECs
• This is equivalent to 215,000 MWh, or approximately 180 MW of solar projects that are 1 MW or smaller
Let’s say Dominion manages to procure only 198,000 DG RECs:
• Leaves a 17,000 REC shortfall
• Dominion must pay a DG “Deficiency Payment” of $75 per DG REC
• 17,000 * $75 = $1,275,000

The problem: • 2014 law established ‘reasonable restrictions’ for HOAs• Since 2014, estimated over 300 installations blocked by HOAs
‘unreasonably’; an estimated >$7 million in solar sales• Single biggest barrier to residential solar installations in VA
The Solution: SB 504 (Petersen) HB 414 (Delaney) • SUN-led coalition, broad, bipartisan support, worked with HOA reps • Defines what is ‘unreasonable’: Increases cost by 5% or decreases
production by 10%• Established by independent, NABCEP Installer licensed in Virginia
