We're helping Indiana communities save with clean energy investments.
The Monroe-Gregg School District and Morgan County Public Library will benefit from Google’s $10M clean energy investment in Indiana.
The Indiana Energy Impact Program has unveiled its initial grant recipients, earmarking $10 million to bolster clean energy initiatives across the state. Monroe-Gregg School District and the Morgan County Public Library are set to receive solar panel installations, a move poised to significantly trim their operational expenses. The school district foresees $2.9 million in total savings over a 30-year horizon, while the library projects a reduction of over $200,000 in utility costs over a 25-year period.
These financial gains will enable both entities to funnel resources towards local students, services, and community programs, amplifying their impact on the community.
Additionally, the program has allocated $3 million to the statewide Indiana Energy Saver Program. This fund will be instrumental in addressing pre-existing property issues, such as damaged roofs or outdated electrical wiring, in low-income areas. By focusing on affordability and clean energy infrastructure, the program aims to ensure that its data center footprint yields enduring advantages for Indiana residents.
