The New Hampshire Department of Energy (DOE) offers grant funding for low-moderate-income community solar projects in manufactured housing communities or multifamily rental housing. The grant program is allocated at least 15% of the annual renewable energy fund (per S.B. 129).
Eligible projects are those defined as "ground-mounted or rooftop solar arrays that directly benefit a group of at least [five] residential end-user customers," and have at least a majority of residential customers "at or below 300 percent federal poverty guidelines," according to RSA 362-F:10.
