Did you know?

Solar is affordable.

The cost of solar has dropped more than 73% in the past 10 years. Homeowners will save an average  of $30,000 on their energy bills.

Savings

Solar is easy.

We do it all: site evaluation, design, permitting, financial incentive applications, ordering, installation, inspections and more.

You just have to open the door for the electrician.

What to expect

Solar makes a difference.

Beyond saving you money, the average residential solar installation has the same environmental impact as planting 4,400 trees. Care about your carbon footprint? This is the single best way to live a more environmentally friendly lifestyle.

Impact

Solar Connection has installed more solar arrays
in the region than any other company

making us the most trusted and experienced solar professionals in the market.
But don’t take our word for it. Here’s what our customers have to say.

“We have friends who are working with Solar Connection now.”

“We talked with a number of solar installers and I highly recommend Solar Connection all the time because they were so attentive and paid so much attention to detail. Everyone who came, they were careful and timely. They did their very best and cared about the project. Then everyone stayed in touch. We actually have friends who are working with Solar Connection now. “ – John G., Lanesboro, MN

“They were such good guys. We trusted them and they did a fantastic job. They gave us a whole profile about what to expect and what we could anticipate generating from our solar panels, and they were right on the mark. It was amazing. They were right on target.”

Susan W, Squash Blossom Farm, Oronoco, MN

“John noticed some months ago that one of the gauges wasn’t reading correctly, so he contacted Solar Connection and they figured it out and knew right away what to do. Whenever we’ve had questions, we call and email and get the information we need, so we feel very secure. At the beginning, we didn’t know anything about panels. We had never done this before, so we needed someone we could trust, and that’s what we got.”

Nancy N, Lanesboro, MN

“I really got a great vibe from the Solar Connection crew when they came to the house. They were very matter-of-fact, very accurate at the end of the day. They did a great job with the work up and the estimate. They gave conservative estimates on what he thought we would produce, so we did as well as we thought we would do with the production. The guys were really fun. Great to talk to.”

Erik T, Oronoco, MN
