ELECTRIFY OUR SCHOOLS
Maryland
Maryland ranks in the top ten states in the country for number of schools with solar. Maryland is poised to lead the country in the adoption rate of solar by school districts.
Generation180 is working to ensure that all Maryland schools can access the benefits of going solar, including reduced energy bills, enhanced STEM education, workforce development, and healthier communities.
Decarbonizing Maryland Public Schools
Generation180 is a project partner of the Maryland Energy Administration (MEA). We are supporting Maryland public schools access state funding for K-12 schools through the Decarbonizing Public Schools Program.
The MEA announced the list of 2024 fiscal year awardees in August 2024: 13 school districts received a total of $26 million to promote clean and efficient energy use for current and future K-12 schools.
