One of the avenues by which NYCHA aims to meet this goal is the ACcelerating Community Empowered Shared Solar (ACCESSolar) program, where smaller rooftops will be made available at low or no cost to community-based organizations and non-profits teaming up with solar developers. The ACCESSolar program will help maximize the solar potential of NYCHA’s portfolio. NYCHA also aims for this program to provide green jobs to residents, expand the availability of solar power to LMI populations, and facilitate first projects for start-up developers. ACCESSolar applicants will be able to submit an application online starting in late March 2018.
