Illinois residents are invited to attend the World's Largest Solar Energy Event on Saturday, Oct. 6.

View renewable energy systems in action. The Illinois Solar Tour is a free self-guided, statewide open house that demonstrates how Illinois homes and businesses are using solar, wind, and geothermal to become energy independent.

Home and business owners with renewable energy installations will be providing tours from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Tour hosts will answer questions on how you can harness the power of the sun and wind to fuel your home and business.

Learn how you can reduce your monthly utility bills, increase property values, and be part of the energy solution.
