But local environmentalists are keeping a wary eye on where those developments might be located.

  Sonoma Clean Power’s new PRO-Fit program is open to 14 kinds of renewable energy generation projects, including biomass, tidal current, geothermal and small hydroelectric. But for now, says COE Geof Syphers, most proposals are expected to be solar installations.

Sonoma County Conservation Action’s Denny Rosatti has a suggestion for one promising location.

  Meanwhile, says Syphers, homeowners are taking advantage of Sonoma Clean Power’s purchasing potential to install larger residential solar systems.
