SB 152 allows Alaskans to purchase shares in community-owned solar arrays, not located on their home or property. Purchasing a share in a “solar garden” is often cheaper and opens up energy savings to renters and low-income community members who can’t afford renewable energy.

GREAT NEWS: U.S. carbon emissions have fallen for the first time in the Biden era. U.S. emissions fell by 5%, or 105 million tons, compared to the same time last year. Renewables also generated more power than coal through the first five months of 2023. 👏

C-PACER impacts are happening! Good news! “A third-party engineer estimated that we would save around $600K/yr over a 20-yr expected life,” Fisher said. “That will be more than $12 million, that’s not bad for a five-and-a-half million dollar investment.” alaskapublic.org/2023/06/27/…
