Permits & interconnection

Residential solar permits in East Peoria are issued by the City of East Peoria's building department and filed by a licensed, registered contractor. East Peoria is in Tazewell County and served by Ameren Illinois, not ComEd, so the interconnection runs through Ameren; solar still earns Illinois Shines SREC payments statewide. SPM files the permit and handles the Ameren interconnection.

No. SPM does not offer leases, only owned systems through a cash purchase or solar loan. Owning the system means you keep the Illinois Shines SREC income and any tax credit you qualify for, instead of a leasing company keeping those incentives.
