Oklahoma is embarking on its journey to a clean energy future. The state is known for being a “heavyweight” when it comes to wind power but is still only skimming the surface of possibilities solar could provide its residents. The Sooner State is currently experiencing a robust policy debate regarding renewable energy. Debates regarding the technology are ongoing in the state legislature, regulatory agencies, and communities around the state.
