Onondaga County is among five counties in central New York state where campaigns to encourage homes, businesses and local communities to install solar energy are currently underway.
The campaigns are part of a recently announced initiative by New York state Gov. Andrew Cuomo to install solar energy throughout the state. More than 900 solar projects are currently being carried out through 26 community “Solarize” campaigns, according to a release from Cuomo’s press office.
Thirty-one more “Solarize” campaigns will be announced this spring, per the release (read the release here).
