Solar Community Assistance for Local Energy

National Laboratory of the Rockies (formerly called the National Renewable Energy Laboratory or NREL) offered targeted technical and analytical assistance to communities through the Solar Energy Innovation Network (SEIN) as Innovation at SCALE (Solar Community Assistance for Local Equity). The goal was to overcome barriers to solar adoption and achieve a just and equitable solar future. SEIN and Innovation at SCALE can offer expert guidance, tailored support on specific challenges, and community-focused solutions with proven strategies and lessons learned from successful SEIN projects. Requests for assistance were expected to reopen in March 2025, but did not and the web page had technical issues in April 2025 and as of October 2025, requests are currently closed.
