Growing solar in Wisconsin starts with folks in communities like yours who are passionate about renewable energy or energy independence and are looking for ways to act.

Here are a few ways you can help spread the word about this opportunity:

1.) If you’re not familiar with solar group buys, attend a live- or pre-recorded webinar. Webinar participants will learn:

  • How we produce clean, renewable energy from the sun
  • How solar protects against rising energy costs
  • How participants reduce or even eliminate their electric bill
  • How quickly investing in solar can pay for itself
  • How solar increases property values

How?

  • Pass this information to a friend, family member or neighbor who may be interested.
  • Ask that information about our solar group buys be posted on your municipality’s or community group’s website or newsletter.
  • Post about the group buy to your social media platforms.
