Black Hills Energy partners with GRID on community solar for Pueblo, Colorado

Black Hills Energy announced the selection of GRID Alternatives Colorado to construct two community solar projects in the City of Pueblo as a means of expanding the economic and environmental benefits of renewable energy to families that wouldn’t otherwise be able to install their own rooftop solar. More than 60% of the capacity stemming from the 2.5-MW projects will be dedicated to providing cost savings for low-income and affordable housing customers within Black Hills’ Southern Colorado service territory. Additionally, GRID Alternatives Colorado will lead solar industry workforce development training throughout the course of the project and offer volunteer and training opportunities to the broader community.
