How does Edina support local renewable energy use?

Edina has been a SolSmart Gold Community since 2018. This means that the City has completed a review of its processes, codes, regulations so that residents and businesses have a streamlined process for going solar.

Edina also has a Community Solar Garden, on the roof of the Public Works building, with a total of 70 households subscribed to the array. This was possible in collaboration with Cooperative Energy Futures (an energy co-op) to manage the solar array and subscriptions. Visit the SolSmart site to read the case study and learn more!
