The Solar for Schools grant program was established by the MN State Legislature in 2021. The first of two funding rounds in 2025 is accepting readiness assessment applications through Feb. 10, 2025.
Before beginning an application, schools must email [email protected] to obtain a project ID, and then proceed with the notice of intent: school readiness assessment, and if deemed ready to proceed with solar they will be invited to compete a full grant application.
CERTs can support schools with free general guidance and technical assistance at any stage of their solar inquiry and process. Learn more about the ways we can support your school.
