This notice serves as a reminder that the emergency amendment in the Adjustable Block Program and Illinois Solar for All (ILSFA) Marketing Guidelines adopted on March 20, 2020, to ensure public safety during the COVID-19 pandemic remains in place and must be adhered by all applicable Program entities.

In light of stay-at-home advisories and similar guidance from state and local authorities, the Illinois Power Agency and the Program Administrator wish to reiterate their commitment to enforcing all Program safety guidelines.

The emergency amendment reads as follows:

In-person marketing and solicitation: Given the public health emergency posed by the COVID-19 virus, in-person marketing or solicitation of photovoltaic system sales, installations, or financing; in-person marketing or solicitation of community solar subscriptions; or similar in-person solar marketing or solicitation activity are prohibited.

Additional clarifications, guidance, and updates to this prohibition have been offered on May 20, 2020, June 4, 2020, June 30, 2020, August 6, 2020, and October 8, 2020.
