California’s two most recent former governors will visit Clovis on Thursday to celebrate a milestone in solar panel installation.
Schwarzenegger signed SB 1, known as the Million Solar Roofs initiative in 2006, authored by former state Sen. Kevin Murray. The program incentivized public utility companies, and home builders to use solar.
The state reached the million solar panel milestone in July.
The CTE Academy opened in 2010, with the goal of students learning about green energy. The $5.2 million project features turbines, solar panels, and other green features.
Students will also be on hand for the ceremony.
