About Solar Urbana-Champaign

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 Vermilion 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.

Help spread the word! The only way this program is successful is through community- led outreach. Please considering sharing with your networks because the more people who go solar through the program, the lower the price for all.
