A community solar project from Dimension Renewable Energy is seen in Waynesboro, Va., on the farm of Steve Wine. Lawmakers in many states, including Virginia, have passed or are considering bills to enable community solar projects, which allow renters and others who can’t install rooftop panels to buy into local projects and receive credit on their electricity bills.
