   With the passage of the <a href="https://www.nrdc.org/bio/jc-kibbey/illinois-passes-nation-leading-equitable-climate-bill">Climate and Equitable Jobs Act</a> (CEJA) in 2021, Illinois is on a path to 100% carbon-free energy by 2050 and has enabled the rapid expansion of clean energy installations. This map is a first pass at creating a statewide aggregate tracking the status of the <strong>state’s rapid expansion of solar projects</strong>.

-  As of {{ site.last_updated }}, over <strong>{{ site.total_kw }} kilowatts</strong> of operating solar capacity have been installed in the State of Illinois.

This tool has a lot of features, including layer toggling, custom map shading, 3D mode and address search.
