Reading Time: 7 minutes Solar Works DC is a program developed in partnership between the District of Columbia’s Department of Energy & Environment (DOEE) and Department of Employee Services (DOES). It’s one aspect of Solar for All, the District’s solar energy initiative launched in 2016. The innovative approach of Solar Works DC accomplishes two major goals at once: increasing solar capacity across the district while also developing a qualified local workforce to expand the District’s solar capacity long-term.
