Zero-carbon electricity now provides most power in Minnesota April 17, 2021 8:00am Text size Copy shortlink:
When Minnesota Power flipped the switch on the Nobles 2 wind farm in southwestern Minnesota last December, it became the first Minnesota utility to generate 50% of its electricity from renewable sources.
The Duluth-based utility also is driving an accelerating trend. Clean energy grew in Minnesota last year despite the pandemic and recession, according to the 2021 Minnesota Energy Factsheet commissioned by the Business Council for Sustainable Energy. It uses research by BloombergNEF.
In 2020, zero-carbon electricity (of renewables and nuclear) generated 55% of Minnesota electricity, up from 48% in 2019. Renewables as a group wind, solar, hydro became the single-biggest source of state electricity at 29% of the total generation. Wind constituted 22% of total generation.

In 2020, zero-carbon electricity (composed of renewables and nuclear), generated 55 percent of Minnesota’s electricity, up from 48 percent in 2019. For the first time, renewable energy was the biggest source of electricity in Minnesota at 29 percent of total generation. Of 588 megawatts of new generation capacity built in 2020, all of it was wind or solar, marking a new record for Minnesota.
“Last year’s addition of new wind and solar capacity shows how Minnesota’s clean energy transition is happening in real time” said Gregg Mast, executive director of Clean Energy Economy Minnesota. “With the right policy levers in place, businesses can fully leverage the clean energy transition and ensure that jobs continue to grow and that the economic benefits are extended to everyone who lives here.”
The technology solutions installed will be owned by Ameresco on land it will lease from Colorado Mountain College. Ameresco will then sell the output generated to HCE.
The avoided annual greenhouse gas emissions of the solar PV are expected to be 6,853 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent, which equates to the emissions benefit of removing 1,481 passenger vehicles from the road, or not burning 7,551,050 pounds of coal.
