Solar Urbana-Champaign 3.0 is a residential and commercial group purchasing program for solar.
Solar Urbana Champaign is back in 2018 with version 3.0! Offered by the City of Urbana, Prairie Rivers Network, and the Midwest Renewable Energy Association, home and business owners throughout Champaign County and Piatt County may participate in this program to help pool their buying power to secure significant discounts that make installing solar more affordable.
Start by attending a Solar Power Hour. Our free information session teaches you the basics of solar, its financial implications for your property, and how the Solar Urbana-Champaign 3.0 program works. Then, get a free, no obligation site assessment from our competitively-selected installer. You have until September 30, 2018 to decide whether to get solar through the program. The Solar Power Hour calendar and program updates will be posted on this page on an ongoing basis.
UPDATE 6/26: We have collectively surpassed 50 kilowatts (kW) of solar! Our next benchmark is 150 kW. Each benchmark triggers deeper discounts for everyone who gets solar through the program.
