UMD Purchases Solar Energy from Minnesota Power

Nov 2, 2017 | News |

Published by Fox 21 on November 2, 2017.

DULUTH, Minn. – The University of Minnesota Duluth has announced it has purchased a 100 kilowatt block at the new Minnesota Power Community Solar Garden in Wrenshall.

The community solar garden is an array divided into blocks that customers subscribe to in order to meet part or all of their energy needs.

The over $213,000 purchase comes after UMD pledged to reduce green house gas emissions by 25 percent by 2020, as well as a goal of being carbon neutral by 2050.

UMD Chancellor Lendley Black describes the purchase as an investment that will pay for itself in electricity savings over time.
