Is plug-in solar allowed in your state?

Find your state below to see whether its dedicated plug-in-solar framework is in effect, enacted for a later date, awaiting a governor, still pending, or no longer advancing. Every entry links to its sources. Read the status, effective dates, and size limit together, and always confirm current rules before you buy. This is informational research, not legal advice.

“No dedicated statewide law found” is a research status, not a determination that a system is permitted or prohibited. Utility interconnection, electrical, building, fire, landlord, HOA, and product-safety requirements may still apply.
