The Value of Solar Heating and Cooling (SHC) in Minnesota


Minnesota has established robust clean energy and greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction goals, aiming to obtain 25 percent of electricity from renewable resources by 2025 and reduce GHG emissions by 80 percent (relative to the 2005 baseline) by 2050. The state is additionally evaluating pathways to create an energy system that does not rely on the use of fossil fuels to power the economy.
