PIKE COUNTY, Ill –Signed into law on Sept. 15, the Climate and Equitable Jobs Act underlines a statewide clean energy goal of %100 by 2050. This law is said to be a landmark in the state’s battle against climate change.

Analysts have said this is an opportunity for consumers to put some money back into their pockets. Whether it’s by installing solar panels, purchasing an electric car, or simply looking for a break on the electricity bill, the energy law offers incentives, both new and familiar.

The estimated savings range is from 5% to 10% on electric bills through a community solar plan, $4000 on an electric car purchase and around $8,000 to $9,000 on a new rooftop solar energy system.
