Grow Solar Central Wisconsin | Start your solar journey today!

Grow Solar Central Wisconsin is Back for 2021!

Grow Solar Waushara County is joining with Grow Solar Central Wisconsin to make this a five-county program!

Grow Solar Central Wisconsin is a grassroots residential and commercial group purchasing program for solar. Offered by CAP Services, Community Foundation of Central Wisconsin, and the Midwest Renewable Energy Association, homeowners and commercial property owners throughout Marathon, Lincoln, Portage, Waushara, and Wood Counties may participate in this program to help pool their buying power to secure significant discounts that make installing solar more affordable.

The deadline to participate is November 15th, so don’t delay!

How to Participate

Are you ready to start your solar journey?

First, start by attending a Solar Power Hour. In this hour-long presentation you’ll learn the basics of solar, how it can save you money, and how the solar group buy program works.

Then, get a free, no obligation site assessment from our competitively-selected solar installer, Northwind Solar, to get the ball rolling on a custom quote for your property. It’s that easy.

Don’t hesitate, your solar journey awaits!

Grow Solar Central Wisconsin Participant Testimonial

“It’s been almost a year since our solar system was installed by Northwind Renewable Energy. One of the things that stands out most about our project is the professionalism of the entire team from Northwind. Our questions were answered promptly and always with a tone of respect and appreciation. The installation crew was polite, on-time and gave us regular updates about their progress. The project was completed on time and at the price we contracted. True professionals. The Solar Central Wisconsin Group Buy program and Northwind Renewable Energy have our highest recommendation.”

– Greg & Amanda Friese, Stevens Point, Grow Solar Central Wisconsin Group Buy Participants

One Program, Big Impact

2021 marks the fifth year for the program. Since 2017, the environmental impact has been huge. Each year, the PV systems installed through this program will singlehandedly avoid greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to 2,157,701 lbs. of CO2. So, thank you to you for making this program successful year after year and for helping to keep our part of the state beautiful, clean, and healthy.
