Address-specific review

Local Planning Review for Long Beach

Long Beach uses electronic solar submissions and a streamlined path for qualifying residential work, but dwelling type, structural scope, electrical work, and storage can change the required review.

Address and Jurisdiction

Long Beach's electronic and streamlined solar procedures apply only to in-City properties and qualifying project scopes; more complex work can require additional review.

Utility and Interconnection

Confirm SCE service and the account's interconnection status. A City permit or inspection does not replace SCE authorization for the proposed system.

Current State Programs

State and utility programs can change. Review the current California program sources before a program is included in a proposal.
