We joined Legacy Solar Co-op because we wanted to dedicate our attention to something small and help it grow in to an everyday concept in Wisconsin. This form of sustainable energy investment is much more tangible and a sensible option given we can’t currently install solar panels on our house.

Legacy Solar Cooperative helped me plan, finance and install solar panels on my home, and navigate federal tax credits.  Our solar installation provides most of our energy and costs less than a second used car.   If you have money sitting around in a saving accounts collecting no interest, you should invest in a solar installation that will ensure you a future of clean renewable energy.  Solar pricing has seen a precipitous price drop, so now is the time to plan your solar installation before the tax credits expire.
