Two groups in Alaska are splitting an estimated $125 million in federal funds for the integration of residential and small-scale community solar power.

FAIRBANKS, Alaska -

”President Biden committed to making the largest investment in our nation’s history to combat global climate change. Our announcement today ensures every community has a green energy future,” said EPA Region 10 Administrator, Casey Sixkiller. “This funding will be used to supercharge the deployment of solar power in communities, create jobs, make our power grid more resilient, and lower the cost of energy for every household.

The second chunk of the $125 million is headed to the coffers of the Tanana Chiefs Conference . That $62.5 million will go toward the ‘Alaska Tribal Solar for All’ program, a partnership between TCC, the Alaska Native Tribal Health Consortium, and Alaska Housing Finance Corporation.
