Solar for Good program expands

A program to provide solar project grants to Wisconsin nonprofits is expanding, according to a statement from RENEW Wisconsin, the program administrator. The Solar for Good grant program will issue another round of grants for nonprofits in Wisconsin looking to install solar energy systems. The program will give approximately $150,000 in funding and material donations to organizations to help reduce the upfront costs of installing solar. The Solar for Good program supplies grant recipients with up to 50% of the solar panels needed for their project. For grant winners selecting a monetary grant, nonprofits can receive up to 20% of the cost of their solar array. Since 2017, the program has awarded grants to 118 nonprofit organizations across the state.
