At Energy Solutions, we focus on the big impacts. And we believe that market-based programs can be a powerful force to deliver large-scale energy, carbon, and water-use savings.

Using this data, you will develop (and present!) your own recommendations to support our goals for equitable and sustainable solar program deployment throughout Illinois.
