SolSmart provides a road map for the City of Middletown to continually improve our solar-related process. The program oriented us to both existing strengths and areas that could be improved. We believe that facilitating solar energy in Middletown strengthens infrastructure, lowers costs, and helps ensure resiliency and equity for all residents. ”Michael Harris, PE, Middletown Energy Coordinator
