Business Description
Illinois’s first community-owned solar cooperative. We bring clean energy and economic power to our communities through collective ownership.
???? Products & Services
At Illinois’s first community-owned solar cooperative, we provide more than just clean energy—we deliver sustainable solutions that create economic and environmental value for our members and communities.
☀️ Community Solar Memberships
Our primary product is community solar memberships, which allow individuals, families, and businesses to share in the benefits of a collectively owned solar farm. Members receive credits on their electric bills, making renewable energy affordable and accessible without installing panels at home.
⚡ Clean Energy Subscriptions
We offer clean energy subscriptions for residents and organizations who want to support renewable power. Subscribers help fund and sustain local solar projects while directly benefiting from lower and more predictable energy costs.
???? Residential Services
For homeowners and renters who cannot install solar panels due to cost, location, or property restrictions, we provide an alternative path to clean energy through shared ownership. This ensures everyone has a chance to participate in Illinois’s clean energy future.
???? Business & Nonprofit Services
We partner with local businesses, nonprofits, and community organizations to supply renewable energy solutions that reduce overhead costs and demonstrate environmental leadership. By joining the cooperative, organizations showcase their commitment to sustainability while saving money.
???? Environmental & Educational Programs
Beyond energy, we provide community education programs about renewable power, energy efficiency, and sustainability. We also organize workshops, training, and volunteer opportunities to empower residents to play an active role in shaping a greener future.
???? Economic Empowerment
Our cooperative isn’t just about energy—it’s about building wealth within communities. By keeping ownership local, we ensure that the financial benefits of solar power—savings, revenue, and jobs—stay right here in Illinois.
