U.S. Solar Siting Regulation and Zoning Ordinances

Publicly accessible License 

A machine readable collection of documented solar siting ordinances at the state and local (e.g., county, township) level throughout the United States. The data were compiled based on a locality-by-locality review zoning ordinances after completing an initial review of scholarly legal articles. The citations for each ordinance are included in the Solar Ordinances spreadsheet resource below.
