Abstract
New standards are bringing the U.S. to the forefront of solar power. Just look at what’s happening in the Golden State—we are counting down to solar mandates in California that require all new single-family homes to include solar. This far-reaching energy policy was adopted in 2018 by the California Energy Commission and requires solar photovoltaic electric systems to be installed on virtually every new residential dwelling built in the state. It will apply to all houses, condominiums and apartment buildings with up to three stories that secure building permits after Jan. 1, 2020. This will affect all residential roofing and solar professionals doing business in California.
