Your Utility Bill. Our Solar Farm.

HOW IT WORKS

A community solar farm is built in Illinois — on Illinois land, producing Illinois energy. Subscribers receive a credit on their regular utility bill each month for their share of what that farm produces.

You don’t need to own your home, have a suitable roof, or make any capital investment. If you have an Illinois electric account with Ameren or ComEd, you very likely qualify.

It’s not a new utility. It’s not a new service. It’s a guaranteed discount on the same electricity bill you already pay — delivered automatically every month.

THREE STEPS. THAT’S IT.

1

You enroll

We match your account to a local Illinois solar farm. No contractors, no equipment, no changes to your home or building.
2

The solar farm produces

Your share of the solar farm's monthly output is calculated and submitted directly to Ameren or ComEd on your behalf.
3

You save

A credit appears on your utility bill automatically. The savings happen without any action on your part each month.

Illinois Community Solar works for everyone.

Who we work with

Select the option that best describes you.

A lower bill, every month. No strings attached.

Whether you own your home or rent, if you have an Illinois electric account you can enroll. There’s nothing to install, no landlord approval required, and no upfront cost. You receive a discount on the electricity you’re already buying.

If you move, your subscription can follow you to your new Illinois address — or cancel without penalty. The savings are locked in from day one.

Solar On Earth has enrolled thousands of Illinois homeowners and renters since 2015. The credits, the savings, and the program are real and have been working for a decade.

Why it works for business

Predictable energy costs. No capital required.

Electricity is one of your biggest fixed costs and one of the hardest to control. Community solar gives small Illinois businesses a guaranteed discount on their utility rate, with no equipment purchase, no installation, and no changes to your operations.

Whether you have one location or several, enrollment is straightforward. A short call is all it takes. We’ll walk through your accounts and build a subscription that fits.

From retail to restaurants to offices — Solar On Earth works with small businesses across Illinois on both Ameren and ComEd service territories.
