Focus on Energy has increased their solar rebates! Homeowners can receive up to $2,400 and businesses can save up to $25,000! With electricity prices increasing, solar is a great way to secure your energy future.

Wisconsin homeowners and businesses can now save more with increased solar rebates through Focus on Energy.

If solar has been on your “someday” list, these bigger incentives can help lower upfront costs and shorten your payback time.

✔️ Higher rebates
✔️ Lower energy bills
✔️ Long-term savings

Feel free to copy/paste and insert your personal story:

Senator (insert last name here),
I support the development of domestic renewable energy in order to stabilize our electric grid, strengthen our national security, and protect our clean air and water. It is for these reasons that I call on you to OPPOSE the termination of the clean energy tax credits as outlined in sections 112001 - 112009 of the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act."
Sincerely,
(insert your name here)

Please write to your federal representatives stating that you support domestic solar energy development, specifically the 30% ITC for residents. If the proposed budget passes as is, this legislation will cause hundreds of American factories to close, eliminate tens of thousands of jobs, force electric bills to skyrocket for everyone, weaken the reliability of our electric grid, and eliminate our capacity to compete with China. This disruption would devastate local, red-state economies, with more than 75% of at-risk factories and investments concentrated in these communities. To find your representatives you can go to:

Use USAGov’s Contact Your Elected Officials tool to get contact information for your members of Congress, the president, and state and local officials.
