Join Symbium for solar permitting

Symbium will help all California cities comply with SB379, the State's solar permitting mandate.

Step 1: What is SB379 and is your jurisdiction required to comply?

In an effort to help jurisdictions meet the State's clean energy needs and spur decarbonization in residential housing through electrification, the State of CA has mandated via SB379 that, unless an exemption applies, every local jurisdiction must implement an online, automated permitting platform that verifies code compliance and issues permits in real time for certain types of residential solar projects.

This State mandate applies to all California cities with a population of 5,000 or more and all California counties with a population of 150,000 or more (including each city within that county).
