How Will Builders Meet New Solar Mandate Regulations?

Mark Vogel

In 2020, a new state policy will go into effect requiring solar installation on new construction residential homes. The solar mandate has its benefits, namely that it will help the state reach its net-zero energy goals, and because all builders are required to comply, it should keep costs down. For some developers, this won’t be new. Solar panels have become a common source of energy in homes. For those unfamiliar with solar, however, companies like PetersenDean Roofing & Solar are helping educated developers on the solar market and process.

“PetersenDean works with some of the largest homebuilders across the nation, so we will be working closely with our clients to help transition into the 2020 solar mandates,” Mark Vogel, president and COO of PetersenDean Roofing & Solar, builder division, tells GlobeSt.com.
