Overview
Researchers analyzed permitting data from 19 states where state agencies have jurisdiction over large-scale solar and wind projects. Among 460 projects studied, 365 reached a permit decision, with 90% approved, mostly within about one year. This suggests that state-level permitting is generally efficient and supportive of renewable energy deployment, helping to accelerate clean energy integration into the grid.
