Solar for Schools Act
Posted on 09/11/2024

Dr. Friend attended a bill signing ceremony for the passage of the Solar for Schools Act hosted by Governor Shapiro and Representative Fielder (Philadelphia).  The Solar for Schools grant program aims to assist school districts throughout Pennsylvania in installing solar panels on their buildings or properties. By producing their own energy, districts can save millions of dollars over the lifespan of a solar project. This initiative also generates well-paying jobs, lowers environmental impact, and helps keep taxpayer expenses down.
