County Land-Use Regulations for Solar Energy Development in Colorado.
Vegetation management requirements for solar power installations in Colorado counties. About a quarter of Colorado counties (15 out of 64) have specific requirements regarding vegetation management during or after the construction of solar arrays (Figure 10).
The first two counties selected were Boulder County, which revised its Land Use Code in 2018, and Weld County, which added new solar siting regulations in 2021. After reviewing each county’s regulations, we drafted a list of relevant policies and policy categories.
Due to Colorado’s county-by-county approach to regulating solar, we also found variation in solar permitting requirements across the state. Counties often apply different permitting requirements to PV systems based on their installed capacity, land area, and/or electricity end use.
Once a county starts receiving applications for solar power plant permits, there appear to be two common drivers motivating the adoption of solar-specific regulations: community response and clear gaps in the existing land-use code.
Twenty counties (31%) across Colorado have policies regulating the visual impacts of solar arrays (Figure 11). An additional 16 counties (25%) have visual impact policies that might apply to solar arrays.
