## What Central Illinois Homeowners Say

"Our battery backup kept our house running when the rest of the street was dark. So happy that we listened to Michael and added battery back-up"

Brandon, Morton

"we've had our solar for 3 years. After several outages we decided to add a battery. Now we're the only house on our street with power during outages"

Jill, Decatur

"I wish we had done it sooner."

Kathy, Washington

"We have to much shade and Michael suggested community solar. I had no idea we could go solar without putting panels on the roof."

Mattie, Pontiac
