PA State Government Choosing Solar Power for its Buildings

What’s happening? Pennsylvania Governor announced the state would “build seven new solar arrays and create more than 400 construction jobs, calling it the largest solar commitment of any state or local government in the United States.”

Why is this important? By 2023, 1/2 of the state government’s energy needs ill be met by solar. Plus, the state is locking down its energy prices for 15 years.

How will this be important? The project is a viable template for other state governments
