According to the Minnesota Department of Commerce, the typical single family home in Minnesota gets more than enough sunlight to meet its year-round energy needs. If you're interested in powering more of your energy needs with solar, check out the following resources:
- Xcel Energy offers options for customers who want to get electricity from local solar energy sources but cannot or do not want to install their own panels.
- The Department of Commerce has a free online Solar App to assess your property's solar potential and estimate the time to recover costs depending on power output, electricity consumption, and federal and state incentives.
When you're ready to install solar panels, call 763-593-8090 to schedule appropriate inspections.
