SF 2369 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Renewable development account repeal; solar production initiative program sunset establishment; appropriating money

This bill ends Minnesota's current renewable development account and sunsets the utility-run solar production incentive program by December 31, 2025. It establishes a new solar energy production incentive account to fund solar projects from 2026 through 2036, appropriating $5 million annually starting in 2026. The new account will support solar system owners (including low-income programs) while requiring utilities to transfer unspent funds from the old program to the new account. The bill directly affects utilities managing solar incentives, residential solar system owners, and low-income energy programs.
