Clean Energy Resource Teams

The Initiative Foundation in Central Minnesota honored six winners at its 2009 Initiative Awards on April 17th at the St. Cloud Civic Center, recognizing outstanding leadership and community service in central Minnesota. The foundation selected the Rural Renewable Energy Alliance (RREAL) as its Outstanding Green Venture. Congrats, RREAL!

The Pine River nonprofit organization helps low-income families heat their homes by manufacturing and installing solar heating systems. The clean energy systems save up to 30 percent on monthly heating expenses, which reduces the need for public assistance and helps families to make ends meet.
