Several Texas businesses are calling on Governor Rick Perry to support solar power.
The "Go Solar Texas" Coalition released a letter Wednesday signed by 80 Texas businesses. They are calling for Perry to push for more solar power projects. The coalition said the Lone Star State is poised to be a leader in the solar power industry.
"Texas has the capability of being a national leader in solar power. We have the most solar radiation in the country, home to the world's largest supplier of silicon and are innovators in the high tech industry," said Rachel Shiozaki, Go Solar Texas Coalition.
The coalition claims this year will be a big one for the solar energy industry. 18 percent of new U.S. and Canadian energy projects will be solar powered.
