This dataset identifies locations of known solar installations. It includes both photovoltaic (PV) and solar hot water installations. The location may not fall in the exact placement of the solar equipment, especially on larger parcels, or parcels with equipment in multiple locations. This dataset only includes active installations. This dataset will be updated quarterly with new installations and to remove records for installations that have been retired.
This dataset has the following 11 columns:
