Alliant Energy has broken ground on two solar projects in Janesville, both east of the Rock Haven assisted living facility. One is a 2.25-megawatt community solar garden, and the other is a 1.4-MW customer-hosted project for Rock County.

The Alliant Energy® Community Solar program allows the company’s electric customers to subscribe and benefit from solar power without installing solar panels on their property. Subscribers receive monthly credits on their electric bills for every solar block purchased.

Approximately thirty percent of the community solar garden’s 9,000 blocks remain available.
