Lawline Presents What Landowners Need to Know About Solar Leases

More and more landowners are being approached by developers seeking to lease their properties for the development of solar energy facilities – a trend that will continue as state and local government policies become friendlier to renewable energy sources. Landowners who are approached regarding a solar lease will want to consider many things before signing on the proverbial dotted line.

Phelps partner Randy Roussel and associate Paxson Guest presented "What Landowners Need to Know About Solar Leases," a CLE course sponsored by Lawline. The discussion helped attendees:

• • Break down the basics of solar energy production and solar leasing 
  • Identify the key provisions of solar leases that landowners should consider before signing
  • Recognize and discuss potential contractual workarounds to satisfy landowner concerns and to address risks
