Virginia Law

A. Each subscriber organization, licensed or otherwise, shall register each proposed shared solar facility with the utility by entering into an agreement containing information as prescribed in this section.

B. A subscriber organization shall provide proof of licensure by the commission, as applicable.

C. A subscriber organization shall submit to the utility the full name of the subscriber organization, address, and type of entity (e.g., partnership, corporation, etc.).

D. Subscriber organizations shall provide the identity of the shared solar facility participating in the multi-family shared solar program, including an address of record and a copy of the executed interconnection agreement for the shared solar facility.

E. Subscriber organizations and the utility shall exchange the names, telephone numbers, and email addresses of appropriate internal points of contact to address operational, business coordination, and customer account issues, and the names and addresses of their registered agents in Virginia.

F. In the event a license granted under 20VAC5-342-30 is transferred to another entity with approval from the commission, the subscriber organization must notify the utility within five business days of approval by the commission.

G. The utility may require reasonable financial security from the subscriber organization to safeguard the utility and its customers from the reasonably expected net financial impact due to the nonperformance of the subscriber organization. The amount of such financial security shall be commensurate with the level of risk assumed by the utility. Such financial security may include a letter of credit, a deposit in an escrow account, a prepayment arrangement, a surety bond, or other arrangements that may be mutually agreed upon by the utility and the subscriber organization. Nonprofit subscriber organizations shall not be required to post a bond, letter of credit, or parental guarantee for the first 500 kilowatts of shared solar project capacity.
