The Illinois Solar for All program is a state-wide initiative, part of the Future Energy Jobs Act, aimed at increasing energy bill savings for qualified communities and non-profits / public facilities within environmental justice areas or low-income census tracts. This program is overseen by the Illinois Power Agency through program administrator Elevate Energy, in partnership with Grid Alternatives, AECOM, and Shelton Solutions Inc.
“With Illinois Solar for All, participants will see no upfront costs and ongoing costs and fees will not exceed 50% of the value of the energy generated from that system.”*
Trajectory Energy Partners is committed to developing expansive Solar for All projects across Illinois in partnership with good community actors. We can help individuals and entities such as non-profits and public facilities navigate the Program, and develop solar energy projects.

The Illinois Solar for All Program focuses on environmental justice communities, as well as low-income census tracts, ensuring that the energy bill savings of solar energy projects are accessible to all. Homeowners and renters that meet specific income requirements, along with public facilities and non-profits that provide services to communities with low-incomes or residing in environmental justice areas are eligible for Solar for All savings.

Non-Profit Organizations and Public Facilities
Low-Income Distributed Generation
Community solar opens up access to communities, governmental entities, organizations, and landowners that can’t install solar on their roof or property. They can participate in a community solar project and be credited for the energy produced by their share of the solar installation.
