The Illinois Power Agency, in collaboration with ILLUME Advising (ILLUME), a national research firm who was selected as the Evaluator of Illinois Solar for All (ILSFA), has released an evaluation report of the Illinois Solar for All: Residential Solar (Small) sub-program. The ILSFA program is required to undergo regular evaluation to measure the program’s impact and to identify future opportunities for improvement.
In the Mid-Year Report, ILLUME explored barriers and opportunities to increase participation across Illinois from Approved Vendors, installers, and participants in the Residential Solar (Small) sub-program by addressing three main research questions:
- What are opportunities to generate greater interest in the Residential Solar (Small) subprogram?
- What are the barriers to entry and participation for installers, particularly small installers, in the Residential Solar (Small) subprogram?
- How might we increase the geographic reach of the subprogram?
