About Grow Solar La Crosse

Built on Success & Powered by Partnership

The tremendous success of thirty-four previous group buys programs, coupled with a strong partnership between the City and County of the La Crosse and the Midwest Renewable Energy Association (MREA) has powered the launch of a solar group buy program in La Crosse County, WI. The group buy is open to all La Crosse County property owners.

Competitive Pricing: The MREA’s competitive request for proposals process ensures you a competitive price and the simplicity of working with a single installer. Most individuals receive a price per watt lower than what is otherwise available from this solar installer. The more people that buy in, the more benchmarks are surpassed, the lower the price becomes. We do recommend that individuals consider all their options before signing a contract to ensure that they are receiving the best value and quality available for their proposed system.

Community Support & Outreach: Our programs are supported by both the leaders and community members of the La Crosse area, and they’re excited and active about spreading the word! Through the help of your jurisdiction leaders and community members, the MREA facilitates a number of one-hour Solar Power Hours for your community. These educational events cover the basics of solar, financials, your property’s solar readiness, and how to participate in Grow Solar La Crosse.

Limited-time Offering: This deal is only available for a short time! You will have until September 30, 2020 to become a part of the Grow Solar La Crosse group buy.

Your Installer: Solar Connection

We have the expertise to deliver on each project. We are honest and reliable. Because we love what we do, our clients have a good time, too.

We take pride in our mission, so expect excellence.

We know that despite the long-term savings, solar’s up-front cost can be an obstacle, so we do whatever we can to make the system affordable and attainable. From proposal to completion, we give attention to detail every step of the way.

The solar installer for this program was selected through a competitive Request for Proposals in early 2020.

“Ultimately, we went with Solar Connection because we appreciated their curiosity and interest in working on a project like this, in helping us figure out where we would mount panels, how many we could do. They were sensitive to all the same things we were sensitive to. And a lot of it was just attitude, choosing people we thought could relate to what we were thinking about. They believed in what we were trying to do.”

“They took a lot of time making sure it was right, helping us choose the right thing, looking at what was available or not. They were just very proactive about giving us something that was going to work.”
