Minnesota's #SF2855 proposes to sunset the state's newly reformed LMI accessible #CommunitySolar Garden program in 2028. This is a gift to powerful utilities at the expense of Minnesota families. More below. ⬇️ @votesolar @SolarNeighbors @Mn_SEIA @ilsr communitysolaraccess.org/new…

A $50 million commitment to MN’s rooftop #solar incentive program is historic. A hard-fought, massive victory for @Mn_SEIA & our members. More importantly, it’s a win for Minnesotans. Cc: @SolarNeighbors, @allenergysolar, @TruNorthSolar, @MN_CEF energynews.us/2024/07/10/min…
