Public Storage’s industry-leading and nationally recognized Solar Program recently achieved a huge milestone with permission to operate received for our 1,000th solar installation at a property in Hawaii, where we installed our first Solar projects in 2014. Our Solar Program has officially come full circle, but we’re not stopping here, with a plan to install Solar at 1,300 properties across 25 states by 2026.
