About the Indiana Ready, Set, Solar! Program

A new, free program from Solar United Neighbors will guide you how to go solar in Indiana! Our team of experts will simplify the process of installing solar panels by providing step-by-step guidance. This will help you make the most informed decision when purchasing solar panels, electric vehicle chargers and battery storage systems. Joining the program will get you:

Info to help you understand solar. Our vendor-neutral solar experts are here to help you understand how solar works and make the best decision for your energy needs.
A direct line to ask specific questions. You can call or email us anytime you need help. We’ll be here now and long after you install solar.
Team support to review proposals from solar companies. Our team offers all the information you want about solar without the slant or impact that can come with the information provided by a solar company. Our personalized Solar Help Desk takes the complexity out of solar so you can make an informed decision that’s right for you, your home, and your future.
Community. You’ll join the growing solar movement. You’ll have a built-in network of support and inspiration from others who, like you, are taking a stand for energy freedom and advancing the clean energy economy.
A bigger impact! Going solar creates jobs and puts energy production and its benefits back in the hands of the people and contributes to cleaner air and water for everyone.
