Solar Energy Will Make Energy Happen For People All Over Minnesota

CleanChoice Energy has begun CleanChoice Energy Community Solar in Minnesota with more than 42 MW of neighborhood solar capacity. The new size, available for both commercial and residential customers, is being provided by eight community solar farms owned and operated by Cypress Creek Renewables. The farms will expand the number of residential community solar supporters in Minnesota by as much as 50%, providing community solar opportunities to thousands of new domestic customers. CleanChoice Energy Community Solar customers in Minnesota have the chance to save money on their utility bills with no upfront payments. The clean energy generated at the solar farms will save more than 20,000 tons of global warming pollution every year.

“We’re excited to be expanding solar choice in Minnesota. The state is the national leader for community solar and these new farms mean thousands of more Minnesotans can support local clean energy while saving money on their utility bills,” stated Tom Matzzie, CEO of CleanChoice Energy. “Community solar makes it easy for Minnesotans to support solar without a big upfront investment or a home construction project—instead they can sign up online and promote local solar in just a few minutes.”

“Our partnership with CleanChoice Energy is a win for consumers in Minnesota,” stated Cypress Creek Renewables CEO Matthew McGovern. “Affordable solar energy is now more accessible to homes and businesses throughout the state. We are thrilled at the prospect of bringing more local community solar online in the future.”

CleanChoice Energy allows customers to sign up in less than ten minutes and manages ongoing customer engagement, all fully digital and entirely online. The eight farms serve homeowners living in the following counties: Anoka, Benton, Blue Earth, Carver, Chisago, Dakota, Dodge, Douglas, Faribault, Freeborn, Grant, Hennepin, Isanti, Kandiyohi, Le Sueur, McLeod, Martin, Meeker, Mille Lacs, Mower, Nicollet, Pope, Ramsey, Rice, Scott, Sherburne, Sibley, Stearns, Steele, Stevens, Swift, Waseca, Washington, and Wright.

The CleanChoice Energy Community Solar program, announced in April, was produced by the company’s “Labs” Division with support from the U.S. Department of Energy’s SunShot Initiative. The firm has overgrown since its 2013 customer-facing launch to become one of the largest direct-to-consumer renewable energy providers in the United States, helping consumers in 27 utilities.
