MN2020: Public Backs Solar
In more ways than one, Minnesota is leading the way to the new energy economy. Innovative technology is driving down the cost of photovoltaic systems and driving up the energy generation efficiency. Energy leaders and policy makers recently toured Bloomington-based tenKSolar, which manufactures photovoltaic units that are up to 50% more efficient than standard solar panels.
According to recent public opinion surveys, enthusiasm among Minnesotans for alternative energy is skyrocketing, which is reflected in their support for policymakers to prioritize solar and wind energy generation.
