Took a quick drive down the access road at our latest ground-mount build in Southern Illinois. Photos definitely don't do this footprint justice, so here’s a quick sneak peek from the ground!

The full showcase drops later this week, complete with 4K footage, hi-res photos, and more project details.

Stay tuned!

Sun’s out, train’s out! ☀️🚂

Nothing beats catching the Brown Line rumbling past right after wrapping up a brand-new solar install! We’re soaking in those peak fall vibes in Ravenswood Manor—vibrant autumn leaves, gorgeous views right on the Chicago River, and a stunning home now officially powered by the sun.

Leaves are turning, temperatures are dropping, but solar production is still shining bright across Chicagoland!

While autumn brings out those vibrant Midwest colors, rooftop panels are busy soaking up crisp, clear October sunshine. There’s no better time to lock in energy savings before the winter chill sets in.

Fun solar fact: Cooler temperatures paired with sunny, clear autumn days actually boost solar panel efficiency. While autumn leaves show off their peak colors, rooftop solar systems are operating at high performance across Chicagoland homes.

Behind every clean solar installation is an incredible residential project management team. From initial system engineering through local permitting, utility interconnection, and final PTO, they handle every step seamlessly to give homeowners a hassle-free transition to solar.

Throwing it back to an iconic Solar project at The Preserve at Oak Meadows! ⛳️☀️

With fall in full swing and golf season winding down, we’re spotlighting one of the region’s most forward-thinking courses. Beyond a top-tier layout, they power their entire electric golf cart fleet with 100% solar energy—meaning every round starts on clean, local sunshine.

Golf operations are prime candidates for clean energy. From cart barns and clubhouses to maintenance sheds, courses have incredible solar potential waiting to be tapped to slash operating costs.

Major props to the Forest Preserve District of DuPage County for leading the charge on sustainable recreation!

It’s always inspiring to see local non-profits and churches step up to lead on climate action. Going solar does way more than lower a carbon footprint, it reduces monthly electric bills so those funds can go straight back into funding local programs and serving the community.

It was a privilege to collaborate with the team at Augustana Lutheran Church of Hyde Park and Lutheran Campus Ministry to get a solar array installed on their roof in Hyde Park. Helping community anchors across the South Side translate environmental goals into meaningful energy savings is the most rewarding part of our mission.
