Switch Together

Switch Together

The Switch Together program helps homeowners and small businesses secure a rooftop solar installation at a discounted price through the power of group buying. The program also offers discounted prices for optional add-ons such as home battery storage and EV chargers.

The City of St. Louis has partnered with Switch Together, a program offered in partnership with the Midwest Renewable Energy Association and Missouri Botanical Garden, to make renewable energy upgrades more accessible for homeowners and small businesses.

Participation is entirely voluntary. Residents can explore their options with no obligation to move forward on a project, and no government funds are involved.

The program offers discounted prices for solar installations and optional add-ons such as home battery storage and EV chargers. Switch Together is also active in the city for discounted air-source heat pump installations.

How Does Switch Together Work?

Switch Together organizes groups of residents who are interested in going solar, together. By organizing a group purchase for rooftop solar and optional battery storage systems, Switch Together can get a better deal for each household participating in the group.

4. Make Your Decision:

Your installer will contact you to schedule your consultation meeting and discuss any specific considerations for your potential project. A site survey will verify your roof's suitability, if needed, and households are then presented with a final design and contract from their installer.
