Give to the Max Day is officially underway in Minnesota, and we’re inviting you to celebrate this 18th year of Minnesota’s giving holiday by making a gift to Fresh Energy from now through Thursday, November 19!
Your gift is more critical than ever. With new elected leadership incoming, we have another opportunity to advance climate and clean energy progress!
For 35 years, Fresh Energy has helped Minnesota lead the clean energy transition. In 2027, we’re committed to equitable, durable change so all Minnesotans can thrive in an affordable clean energy economy.
We can’t do this important work without you.
Supporters like RJ and Teresa Devick help make our progress possible. Impressed by Fresh Energy’s pragmatism and systems-level change, they became Power Circle donors. They have electric vehicles and home solar, and their year-round support for our mission drives the lasting, statewide change they want to see.
With your support, Fresh Energy has defended Minnesota’s clean energy leadership and advanced an affordable clean energy transition. This year, we:
- Secured new incentives and rules for sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), a key method to reduce traditional jet fuel emissions by 90%. Our advocacy helped secure the highest incentives for the cleanest SAF pathways while building its supply chain right here in Minnesota.
- Expanded our clean energy advocacy to the Southwest Power Pool, the Great Plains regional grid operator and hired a staff person to help build and connect more carbon-free energy to the electric grid.
- Successfully prevented Minnesota Power’s proposal for the construction of a new, large gas plant in northeastern Minnesota and effectively advocated at the Minnesota Public Utilities Commission for the utility to increase its investment in wind, battery storage, and other clean energy resources.
Our climate ambitions for 2027 are even greater — and we need your help.
Your support powers meaningful climate progress in Minnesota. Will you help seize this moment and shape Minnesota’s clean energy future?
