About the Program

Illinois recently approved the Clean Energy Jobs Act creating Illinois's Community Solar Program. Through this program, Illinois residents can sign up to support a new, local, solar project. Energy from the project flows to the electric grid, replacing fossil fuels and lowering emissions. When you sign up to support a project, you receive clean energy credits that lower your electric bill every month.
