The Grow Solar Jasper + Poweshiek County program surpassed its first 50 kW solar installation benchmark thanks to participation from Jasper and Poweshiek County residents and business owners.

This group-buy program allows individual home, farm and commercial property owners to access competitive prices for solar installations through the power of volume purchasing.

The first benchmark triggers a price break of $70/kW for all participants, which could be an additional $900 in savings on the average size solar installation. Pricing will decrease again when the group collectively reaches solar installation benchmarks of 150 kW, 250 kW and 350 kW. Join us at our next Solar Power Hour to learn more about solar energy and the Grow Solar program!
