Pennsylvania HB504 establishes regulations for community energy facilities, including authorization, bill credits, and prevailing wage requirements.

Pennsylvania HB504, known as the Community Energy Act, authorizes the development, ownership, and operation of community energy facilities by community energy organizations. These facilities must generate electricity through solar photovoltaic devices or renewable natural gas devices, and they can be located on brownfield sites or rooftops. The bill mandates that subscribers receive a bill credit for every kilowatt hour produced by their subscription, which offsets their retail electric bill.
