In 2022, the town of Oro Valley issued 704 permits for the installation of rooftop solar electricity systems on single-family homes. Now, as one of 12 communities across America to potentially earn a $15,000 prize from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, Oro Valley has implemented SolarAPP+, a third-party, web-based application that automates the permitting process, and can result in an approved permit within 24 hours of application, the town of Oro Valley has announced. The 'more efficient permitting process' is being administered through Oro Valley's Community and Economic Development Department.
