MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- The sun was not shining Wednesday, April 29, but solar energy was on the minds of Milwaukee's leaders at the district three police station.
That's where Mayor Cavalier Johnson announced the 'Grow Solar' campaign, encouraging homeowners and utilities to invest in the power of the sun.
This particular police station was chosen because they've just finished installing solar panels on the roof.
"We need to look at all the resources, such as the solar panels on top of the building. We also have put in LED lights, leaned into the renewable hybrid vehicles, electric vehicles, understanding our commitment to be part of this project, part of this effort." said Milwaukee Police Chief Jeffery Norman
'Grow Solar' is a group-buying and education program designed to make going solar easier in Milwaukee.
