Solarize KC offers an opportunity to install solar energy infrastructure at your home or business at discount prices achievable through bulk buying along with others in Kansas City. The more purchasers, the lower the total price of an installed renewable energy system.

Solarize KC is already accepting advance registrations for the upcoming program. Interested residents can learn more about the program and sign up to be first in line for a free evaluation.
