     Quick Facts on State Solar Energy Policy as of December 2009
     A state renewable portfolio standard (RPS) that includes a solar set-aside requires a percentage of the
     state's electricity be generated from solar resources. An RPS can also include a solar multiplier that gives
     additional credit in meeting the RPS for solar projects or require an increase in distributed generation (i.e.,
     electricity generation close to the point of use), which can spur solar development. Policy driven demand
     for electricity generated from solar resources may increase the viability of PV solar generation at a site
     that would otherwise not be considered viable based on solar resource availability.

                     National Renevable Energy Laboratory (NREL) criteria. GIS data provided by NREL and EPA and policy

                     its associated data are intended to provide a general understanding of the renewable energy potential of
                     EPA tracked sites: additional site-specific technical and economic analysis is required to
                     determine the actual energy generation potential of these sites. For further information, please see
