HF 2310 opens up the state’s community solar program to more residential subscribers, specifically low-to-moderate income (LMI) households, and expands the project sites from 1 MW to 5 MW community gardens.
In Minnesota, consumers faced difficulty signing up for projects due to geographic siting restrictions and developers grew frustrated with limitations long overdue for changes, according to the advocacy group Coalition for Community Solar Access (CCSA).
HF 2310 addresses the limitations posed over recent years under the state’s ten-year old CSG program and ensures all Minnesotans, including renters and LMI customers can participate in the clean energy transition.
