Distributed solar photovoltaic, or solar PV, generation has taken off in Iowa over the past several years., with Iowa’s installed capacity of grid-connected solar PV growing from 100 kW in 2008 to over 7400 kW by the end of 2013.   Many utilities are considering community solar projects to capture customers’ excitement about solar while benefiting from the economies of scale achieved through a single central solar array.  Community solar arrays, also known as community solar gardens, allow customers to receive the benefit of solar energy without installing panels at their home or business.
