The 2023 Illinois Solar Tour took place on Saturday, September 30th! Home and business owners with renewable energy installations opened their homes to the public and shared their passion, knowledge, and experience of owning, maintaining, and living with renewable energy.

Types of Tours:

    • Video: The home or business owner filmed a video tour of their system, which is viewable online
    • Walk-By Solar Home: The home or business owner will not be available to greet visitors; visitors can view the system from outside
