Are you interested in going solar? Learn if solar is right for your home and how to get the most value out of your solar system from consumer advocate experts. Citizens Utility Board is very excited about new solar incentives available to homeowners in Illinois. However, we know that with all the new advertising and high-pressure sales pitches it can be confusing to know what is best for you. At this presentation, we will go over solar basics, including why now is the best time yet to go solar, how solar panels work with your home and the grid, an overview of state and federal incentives, and why it is almost always better to purchase, rather than lease solar panels.
