| Colorado initially enacted a renewable portfolio standard via a ballot initiative. The updated standard now requires utilities serving greater than 500,000 customers to supply 100% of retail sales with clean energy sources by 2050. https://www.c2es.org/document/renewable-and-alternate-energy-portfolio-standards/ | Colorado has two low and moderate-income clean energy programs. The Colorado Rooftop Low-Income Program comes in the form of a grant for homeowners or multifamily homes and uses Solar PV and energy efficiency technology. The other program, Colorado Community Solar Gardens, comes in the form of a bill reduction or credit and is available to homeowners, multifamily homes, and renters. This program solely uses Solar PV technology. https://www.cesa.org/resource-library/resource/directory-of-state-low-and-moderate-clean-energy-programs/ | Regulated | $64,075,963 |
