Fresh Energy is deeply committed to ensuring that Minnesota’s path toward 100% carbon-free electricity is inclusive, ambitious, and equitable.
We applaud President Joe Biden’s executive order rejoining the Paris Agreement. Rejoining the Paris Agreement signals to the rest of the world that the United States has a renewed commitment to acting on climate.
Minnesota Power’s announcement is a huge step forward that will result in significant carbon reduction, cost savings, and is a clear statement that a carbon-free electricity system is the destination.
As an organization founded on the principle of serving the public interest, Fresh Energy depends on public institutions that are open, accessible, stable, and accountable.
Fossil fuel infrastructure such as Line 3 is obsolete upon completion and simply not needed.
Fresh Energy is committed to navigating climate and clean energy policy solutions through all branches of state government and on both sides of the aisle.
