MCA is working to bring clean, equitable energy to every community in Minneapolis. Our aim is to make our city a global leader in the fight against climate change — and the fight for environmental justice.
We believe that solar energy should benefit every member of our community, not only affluent homeowners who can afford solar panels or solar subscriptions. Our solar programs are available to all residents of Hennepin county and adjacent counties who are Xcel energy customers, and we offer subscriptions that require no prepayment or credit checks, making it one of the most equitable programs ever offered in Minnesota. MCA is launching the Emerge Second Chance Community Solar Garden and North High School Community Solar Garden. These two remarkable projects will bring clean, accessible and equitable energy and bill credits to hundreds of residents of our city. We are excited about our community solar garden and resiliency hub work with Central Neighborhood and Sabathani Community Center. Our goals for 2022 and beyond are to have renewable energy options available to every Minneapolis resident that reduce electric bills, address equity and climate justice and heal our climate crisis. |

Minneapolis Climate Action's Commitment to Environmental Equity
Minneapolis Climate Action is committed to addressing the intersection of climate change and economic, social, and racial disparities, and working closely with partners who understand this interface. We realize that the existing infrastructure has created systemic inequity and our programs are designed to express our understanding of this complex issue. We seek to disrupt these institutions in light of the climate emergency, and we seek to do so in a way that is equitable for all in accordance with the 17 Principles of Environmental Justice adopted at the First National People of Color Environmental Leadership Summit.
