This past Legislative Session, MnSEIA worked hard with our partners to pass a historic extension to the popular Solar*Rewards program - $50 million! Why this is important: ⚡Since 2014, Solar*Rewards has helped 8,000+ residential and small business customers go #solar. ⚡Provides business certainty by extending the program to 2035. Local companies can expand, hire more Minnesotans, and reach more LMI communities with the consistent, stable funding. ⚡Redesigned with equity in mind and will make #CleanEnergy more accessible to low-to-moderate income households. ⚡Expands the residential solar sector in Minnesota, a crucial component in reaching our 2040 goals. With MnSEIA's Logan O'Grady, Esq. and members Solar United Neighbors, Cooperative Energy Futures, All Energy Solar, and TruNorth Solar LLC for Energy News Network. Thanks for covering this story Frank Jossi! https://lnkd.in/dpxGug9z
