We're celebrating a monumental win for the future of solar energy in Kansas! Governor Laura Kelly, a proud Bradley University '72 graduate, has been commended for her pivotal role in signing HB 2527, a groundbreaking legislation supporting solar energy. Bob Solger, also a Bradley University alum from the class of '76 and Managing Partner of Solar Design Studio, participated in the process to achieve this milestone. We also acknowledge the Kansas Clean Energy Business Council (CEBC), a network of companies and organizations working to expand opportunities for renewable energy and energy efficiency, for their leadership and significant contributions to this achievement.

HB 2527 has paved the way for a brighter, more sustainable future by increasing the capacity for net metering facilities and introducing crucial requirements for exporting power. This legislation opens doors for residential, commercial, and industrial customers and even school districts to invest in energy generation systems, leading to substantial utility cost savings and creating opportunities for economic growth in Kansas. It also contributes to a cleaner environment and reduces the reliance on traditional fossil fuels. This shift towards clean energy not only promotes environmental sustainability but also creates new job opportunities and stimulates economic growth in the renewable energy sector across the state.
