The St. Louis region will once again be growing solar with the launch of the 2023 Grow Solar St. Louis program year! This limited time program will open this spring, and accept participants through the summer. Grow Solar St. Louis is a public education and group purchasing program for residential and commercial solar offered by the Missouri Botanical Garden, Washington University in St. Louis, and the Midwest Renewable Energy Association.
Since its launch in 2019, Grow Solar St. Louis has helped 1,161 learn more about solar options and energy efficiency through educational Power Hours and 170 properties have added a total of 1,118 kilowatts of solar installations across the St. Louis region. Property owners throughout the City of St. Louis, St. Louis County, and St. Charles County may participate in this program to help pool their buying power to secure significant discounts that make installing solar more affordable. For folks who live across the river and want to grow solar, participants can check out Grow Solar St. Louis’ sister program Grow Solar Metro East, also returning in 2023.
