Bill Expected to Accelerate Solar Energy Growth in Iowa

 Gov. Terry Branstad on Friday signed into law HF 645, a bill that increases Iowa’s solar energy tax credits and adds production tax credits for utility solar projects.

“Solar works for Iowa,” said Senator Rob Hogg (D-Cedar Rapids) who floor managed the bill in the Iowa Senate, where it passed with unanimous bipartisan support. “This legislation will accelerate the growth of the solar energy industry in Iowa. That’s good for the environment and our economy. Solar energy is already working for thousands of businesses, farmers and homeowners across our state.”
