Lakeland PBS · last updated

Representatives from the nonprofit group Solar United Neighbors and other involved partners talked about solar energy and the launch for the Fields and Forests Solar Co-Op last night.

The Fields and Forests Solar Co-Op is free to join and open to homeowners and business owners in Case, Crow Wing, Morrison, Todd and Wadena Counties.

SUN works in Minnesota and nationwide to represent the needs and interests of solar owners and supporters.

Solar co-ops are part of the organization’s mission to create a new energy system with rooftop solar at the cornerstone.

Those interested in joining the Fields and Forests Co-Op have until July 31st to do so.

“We just are focused on helping people go solar,” Solar United Nieghbors Minnesota Program Associate John Anderson said. “A lot of folks find it can be challenging if you’ve never done this before. There’s always different installers and different programs, but we find that our co-ops are a great way to work together and finding support both from us and also you can rely on each other.”

SUN will be hosting another virtual information session regarding the Fields And Forests Co-Op on June 25th at 6:30 p.m.
