There’s so much wind and solar energy being proposed in the U.S. that there’s not enough power lines to get that energy where it needs to go. Building out that new transmission is expensive — it’s one of the things causing Indiana utilities to raise customers’ electric bills right now.

Indiana nonprofits are unsure if — or how — some climate-friendly grants will move forward. President Trump’s executive order freezing funding from the Inflation Reduction Act and the bipartisan infrastructure law — as well as the lawsuits pushing back — have created a lot of uncertainty.

A new report shows Indiana has a lot of land space for solar and renewable energy projects.

New federal funding will allow for the development of low-income solar programs throughout the state.

Nationwide, solar accounted for more than half of all the new energy that came online in 2023. Though a good portion of that could have been held over from 2022.

A state law says counties with wind or solar ordinances that are more restrictive than state guidelines can't access state incentives. But a new state House bill, HB 1278, would let counties that nearly meet the guidelines get them too.

Ontario-based Canadian Solar Inc. will build an $800 million solar panel factory in southeastern Indiana that will employ about 1,200 workers once production is fully ramped up, the company said Monday.

Two years ago, Indiana expected to see the third highest solar growth of any state in the country if all of the proposed large-scale projects got built. But last year we saw only a third as much solar as in 2021.

There were several bills proposed during this year's legislative session that had to do with energy and the environment in Indiana. Here's a run-down of some of the bills that passed and failed during this years legislative session.

The U.S. hasnt found a cost-effective way to recycle panels and turbines yet. And that could mean a lot of waste in the next 20 to 30 years as the less efficient ones operating today reach the end of their useful life.
