Why Choose Energy Solutions?

Energy Solutions is an independent solar energy brokerage company based in Clayton, Missouri, that works with some of the top solar providers serving Southern Illinois. Our goal is simple: help homeowners find the solar solution that best fits their financial goals while maximizing available savings and state incentives.

Unlike a traditional solar company that can only offer its own products and financing options, Energy Solutions evaluates multiple qualified solar providers to help you find the best overall solution for your home.

Our Standards

Before we partner with any solar company, they must meet strict criteria:

  1. Be a local company serving the Southern Illinois area.

  2. Maintain an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau (BBB).

  3. Have a strong reputation with consistently high customer satisfaction ratings.

  4. Be registered and approved to participate in Illinois state-funded solar programs, including:

By maintaining these standards, we help ensure that our clients work with reputable, experienced, and qualified solar professionals.

  • When you speak with Energy Solutions, we begin by learning about your home's energy usage, financial goals, and overall objectives for going solar.

    Through a detailed consultation, we determine:

    • Which solar program best fits your financial goals and expected return on investment (ROI).

    • Which Illinois state incentives and programs you may qualify for.

    • Which solar installation company is best suited to provide the highest value and savings for your specific project.

    Once we have evaluated your options, we match you with a solar provider that meets our strict standards and is licensed and approved to participate in Illinois solar programs.

  • After identifying the best solution for your home, we provide a customized solar proposal that includes:

    • Estimated energy savings.

    • Available state incentives and program benefits.

    • A digital design showing the proposed solar panel placement on your home.

    • Project cost estimates and financial comparisons.

    • Multiple financing options tailored to your needs.

    Our goal is to provide clear, transparent information so you can make an informed decision with confidence.

  • We understand that every homeowner's financial situation is different. That's why we review multiple financing options with every client.

    Option 1: No-Cost Solar Program

    Our most popular residential option allows qualified homeowners to benefit from solar with little to no upfront cost.

    Option 2: Customer-Owned Solar

    Many homeowners prefer to finance or purchase their solar system themselves. We will review the available ownership and financing options and help you determine whether they make sense for your situation.

    We will always present both options so you can compare the benefits and decide which path is best for you and your family.

  • Most solar companies can only offer one product, one pricing structure, and one financing package—their own.

    Energy Solutions is different.

    Because we work with multiple qualified solar providers, we can compare options from several leading companies rather than being limited to a single solution. This allows us to focus on what is best for you, not what is best for a particular installer.

    Instead of trying to fit every homeowner into the same program, we evaluate multiple providers, financing structures, incentive programs, and project designs to identify the solution that delivers the greatest value and savings.

    At Energy Solutions, our mission is to help homeowners make informed decisions, maximize available incentives, and find the solar solution that best meets their energy and financial goals.
