Who is CHESSA?
CHESSA is the Chesapeake Solar and Storage Association. We are a solar and energy storage trade association committed to an effective and equitable clean energy transition across Maryland, Virginia, and the District of Columbia. A 100% clean energy transition that sees mainstream adoption of local solar, large-scale solar, and battery storage throughout the electric grid will realize a stable and affordable grid for all consumers. This is how we can create a reliable, resilient, clean, and affordable energy system for our future.
Our Work
Our members are involved in every facet of the solar industry. They design, sell, integrate, install, maintain, and finance solar energy equipment for residential, commercial, industrial, and institutional customers throughout the region. Among our ranks are the accountants, attorneys, builders, architects, electricians, plumbers, developers and consultants who together form the foundation of solar. CHESSA represents sole proprietors and publicly traded companies alike, and drives value to the residential, commercial, industrial, community and utility scale sectors.
