Solar Urbana Champaign is a grassroots residential and commercial group purchasing program for solar. Offered by the Midwest Renewable Energy Association in partnership with local municipalities and organizations, homeowners and commercial property owners throughout Champaign, Piatt and Vermillion Counties may participate in this program to help pool their buying power to secure significant discounts that make installing solar more affordable. This program builds on previous years of successful programs that helped over 200 local property owners go solar.

This year’s program will launch in late spring. Sign up below to get updates and join the program once it begins!
