Milwaukee makes its first appearance on the show with a nearly 7 MW community solar project built to power city buildings instead of individual subscribers. Then Illinois notches another first: PureSky Energy's McLean 1, the state's first community solar farm built entirely for low and moderate income households, with real dollar figures behind it.
