TOP 5 WAYS
Solar Makes Financial Sense
for Homeowners

Save on Energy Bills Immediately

Going solar is like owning your very own mini clean energy power plant on your roof (or yard). Instead of pulling all of your energy from the utility grid, solar offsets your electricity usage. You'll see your energy bill savings right away.

Lock in Long-term Savings in 2024

With utility rates on the rise in Illinois, going solar is a great way to stabilize your energy rates for the 30+ year lifespan of your array. Take control of your energy with solar to levelize the cost of your electricity and get a return on your investment.

Increase Home Value with Solar Panels

Increase Your Home Value with Solar

Solar panels boost home value by reducing energy costs, attracting eco-conscious buyers, and offering long-term savings. As energy-efficient features become increasingly desirable, solar stands out as a smart and valuable upgrade.

Save up to 65% with Illinois & Federal Solar Incentives

Combine the Federal Investment Tax Credit and the Illinois Solar Renewable Energy Credit program, to save up to 65% off the total cost of your solar array.

Interested in protecting against outages with a solar + battery solution? You may be eligible for a solar battery rebate. Our solar estimates calculate your eligible incentives up front.

Simplify Payments with Solar Financing Options

Investing in solar for your home sure feels much better than writing a hefty check to the utility company every month. Accessible financing options from the Clean Energy Credit Union—with $0 down, competitive rates, and special solar loans—make the switch to solar both financially practical and environmentally responsible. In many cases, your monthly payments may be equal to or lower than your current electricity bill!
