You might remember seeing a survey in February asking a few questions about Community Solar Gardens (CSGs).
CSGs are a way for Minnesotans to subscribe to a portion of a large solar project and receive credit on their energy bill for their portion of the project’s electricity production—just as they would if the panels were on their own roofs.
CERTs is continuing its work with researchers from the University of St. Thomas to better understand which aspects of community solar are most important to you and which factors would most influence your decision to subscribe to a project. We’d love to include your insights in a follow-up survey, which should take about 10 minutes to complete.
The results of the survey will be shared in a report in early 2015. Your responses will be kept confidential and will not be associated with your name.

P.S. Please be aware that questions 1, 2, and 3 ask your opinion about projects that would be located IN your community, while questions 4, 5, and 6 ask your opinion about projects that would be located OUTSIDE of your community.
