Plant Siting
Siting a solar power plant is no small feat. Land use and water rights must be considered, and securing access to a suitable site is only the first step in the siting process. SEIA supports the use of federal land for solar project development and is actively engaged in the Bureau of Land Management's (BLM) process for crafting a programmatic environmental impact statement for solar energy. SEIA is also represented on the Technical Committee for the Western Governors' Association Western Renewable Energy Zone Initiative.
