Hope other states follow. The fact Arizona is still 80%+ non-renewable is just such a missed opportunity.

Arizona is a great case where agrovoltaics could really work. Solar reduces the sun load to something reasonable and minimizes evaporation, plants cool the air under the panels. Human / nature infrastructure symbiosis.
Recent local news story on this:

"Arizona farmers turn to solar panels to shade crops, save water and generate power"
