Solar Utility Network Deployment Acceleration
The National Rural Electric Cooperative Association (NRECA) is the national association representing 833 distribution and 62 generation and transmission (G&T) cooperatives. From booming suburbs to remote rural farming communities, America’s electric cooperatives are energy providers and engines of economic development and way of life for more than 19 million American homes, businesses, farms, and schools in 47 states across the U.S. Member owned and responsive, generally smaller than investor-owned and municipal utilities, often more nimble in services for members, co-ops provide the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) with a strong partner for testing and accelerating utility-scale solar design, pricing, and delivery models.
