CERTs

About this original series

The Clean Energy Resource Teams (CERTs) project, launched in 2003, is connecting people with the technical resources needed to identify and implement community-scale energy efficiency and clean energy projects. Community members from around the state have developed a bold vision for Minnesota’s energy future, through greater energy efficiency and production from clean 21st Century technologies including wind, biomass, biofuels and solar power. Minnesotans’ vision is becoming a reality now, one project at a time. CERTs TV offers you CERTs video clips and news sightings, as well as videos and full documentaries produced by CERTs partners!
