During the 2023 Legislative session, the Minnesota Legislature made changes to the Community Solar Garden statute: Chapter 60 - MN Laws sunsetting the “Legacy” program operated by Xcel Energy and establishing a new program to be administered by the Minnesota Department of Commerce (Commerce).
Commerce has launched the Low and Moderate-income Accessible Community Solar Garden program (LMI-Accessible CSG Program). The application process and information about what applicants will need to submit are described on the Application Information page.
The Request for Applications (RFA) for the 2025 Program Year is currently open and can be found on Commerce's Request for Proposals page.
