Installation is a part of MMPA Hometown Solar Grant

2018-06-21

The sun is powering a new learning tool in Arlington. An educational solar array provided by the city’s wholesale electrical supplier, the Minnesota Municipal Power Agency (MMPA), is now operating as part of energy education programming for Sibley East Public Schools. The array is located at Sibley East Middle/High School.


The five- kilowatt installation is part of MMPA’s Hometown Solar Grant Program — an extension of its Energy Education Program for its 12 member municipalities, including Arlington. The solar array in Arlington provides an opportunity for students and residents to learn about the characteristics and benefits of solar power. Information and data from the solar panels will be shared among Sibley East schools to support energy education in the classroom.
