Suzan Klein liked thisSuzan Klein liked thisNew York’s elected leaders just made an historic $200M investment in rooftop and community solar 🗽 Here are three actions the New York Public Service Commission can take to make the most of this investment: ⚡️Adopt updated, more accurate compensation rates for community solar and energy storage projects, as proposed by the New York State Department of Public Service in the VDER proceeding. Quick, decisive action will ensure that more community solar is built with federal support. Further delays would be a major missed opportunity for New York ratepayers. ⚡️Direct New York’s utilities to allow for the use of Meter Socket Adapters — safe, proven hardware that can lower the cost of residential clean energy upgrades. ⚡️Rapidly implement the no-regrets interconnection reforms in New York’s FY2027 budget, including utility cost transparency and certainty and flexible interconnection — powerful solutions to lower costs and make the most of New York’s investment.

For the past two decades, the agriculture sector has benefited from a place to develop shared goals, metrics, language, and trust among diverse stakeholders. I had the pleasure of leading Field to Market for seven years, and I’m proud to see the continued growth and progress of this important work. Here’s to the next twenty years of building a more regenerative & resilient food and ag system through pre-competitive collaboration. 🌱🚜 [Photo credit: Emily Johannes]

Suzan Klein liked thisSuzan Klein liked thisSometimes it's modestly sized projects that can have significant complexity - where you have to be patient, tenacious, and focused on reaching the final result that's best for your partners. The forthcoming 🌞 installation for Emma Norton Services, in partnership with Solar by Us and Apadana Energy LLC, will serve the facilities and the residents of an exceptional permanent supportive housing development dedicated to formerly homeless mothers and their children. Together we've navigated, tackled, and overcome: -Insurance claims and requirements -Building/roof repairs -Treasury and DOE programs and regulations -Utility barriers -Optimizing financing to maximize savings It's going to be great when this site will provide a home for more clean energy production as well as the 13 families the dedicated staff are helping. https://lnkd.in/g6jruM7j

What’s the return on investing in civil legal aid? In Minnesota, it’s $4.32 for every $1 spent. A new report from the MSBA’s Access to Justice Committee shows that legal aid services provided in 2023 generated more than $239 million in economic impact statewide. That’s a 432% return—a clear indication that access to justice benefits everyone. Read the full report: https://lnkd.in/g6EixX7F
