Thank You Partners!

Grow Solar programs are community-led efforts, and our partners are critical to building and promoting our grassroots efforts to offer discounted solar. Thanks to all of our amazing partners who supported this year’s program!

This year, Grow Solar Twin Cities was supported by Pale Blue Dot LLC, Resilient Cities and Communities, Center for Energy and Environment, and by the Cities of Minneapolis, Edina, Stillwater, White Bear Lake, Woodbury, Burnsville, Inver Grove Heights, Roseville, New Brighton, Minnetonka, Coon Rapids, Oakdale and Maplewood.

Grow Solar offers free education about solar energy to help people figure out if solar is right for them. Do you own a property? Is it relatively free from shade? Do you want to lower your electricity bills? Solar might be right for you!

Start by attending a Solar Power Hour. Our free information session teaches you the basics of solar, its financial implications for your property, and how the Grow Solar Twin Cities program works. Look for a Power Hour schedule this spring!

Then, get a free, no obligation site assessment from our competitively-selected installer (selected this spring). After attending a Solar Power Hour, schedule a site assessment and cost estimate.

Grow Solar Twin Cities will be offered through September 30, 2022. Don’t delay, sign up today!

Want more information about this program? Learn about the MREA’s process for facilitating group buys, our previous successes with this program and details about the selected installer, MN Solar, on the About page.

One Program, Big Impact!

2022 marked the fourth year for the Grow Solar Twin Cities program. Since 2018, the environmental impact has been huge. Each year, the PV systems installed through this program will singlehandedly avoid greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to 2,576,048 lbs. of CO2. So, thank you to you for making this program successful year after year and for helping to keep our part of the state beautiful, clean, and healthy.

Since 2018 –

746 people attended Solar Power Hours

186 properties added solar

1374 kilowatts of solar have been installed

Every year that’s like avoiding –

2,900,397 miles driven by the average passenger vehicle

1,292,812 lbs. of coal burned

OR like 50,578 trash bags recycled rather than landfilled
