Our Story - Using Business as a Force for Good
Certified B Corp
Morton Solar was founded to tackle the climate crisis by removing barriers to clean energy. Our mission is to reduce the cost of renewable energy, making it accessible to all.
In 2009, Morton Solar fought against the local utility to allow a small 2kW windmill for Haubstadt Community School to interconnect to the grid as the utility would not allow three-phase service interconnection. This led to Morton Solar filing an official complaint with the IURC, in which they deemed the utility wrong to deny interconnection and force the utility company to rewrite its tariff for renewable energy. Had Morton not filed this complaint, it’s possible that 3 phase customers may not have had the ability to install solar energy systems on their businesses in Southwest Indiana. Because of this massive accomplishment for the solar industry, then-current Senator Richard Lugar awarded Morton Solar the Lugar Energy Patriot Award.
In December 2008, Morton Solar engineered and commissioned the first net-zero public library in the U.S., Chrisney Public Library. One year later it was evident that the solar energy system not only produced enough kWh’s to offset the building's consumption. However, the library actually generated more than the building consumed and built up credits in the meter for the next year. This caught the eye of future Lt. Gov. Sue Ellsperman who awarded the library its net-zero status. Because of Lt. Gov. Sue Ellsperman, Morton Solar was introduced to then-current Lt. Gov. Becky Skillman and Gov. Daniels. This discussion about renewable energy in Southwestern Indiana led to Gov. Daniels issuing an executive order in 2011 to expand solar net-metering law for all customers of investor-owned utility companies to net-meter up to 1MW in system size. As a Certified B Corporation, we demonstrated our commitment to this mission and strive to use our business as a force for good.

"As one of the first solar installation companies in this region, Morton Solar has had years of experience and an excellent reputation. Morton installed our solar panels in 2019, and we have been enjoying the benefits ever since. We had 2 Tesla backup batteries added by Morton in 2020. We recently noticed a problem with battery communication and contacted Brad Morton with our questions. His excellent team came to troubleshoot the problem and persisted until everything was perfect. Morton engineer, Monie Owsley, who oversaw and participated in the work, is very competent and also personable and easy to work with. The entire team at Morton Solar from its owner, Brad Morton, to all of its employees that we have interacted with are professional and competent. I would highly recommend Morton Solar to anyone in their service area."

CEO - Peoples Bank & Trust
"Morton Solar installed a 115,000 KWH SunPower system for Peoples Trust and Savings Bank in Boonville, Indiana. A review of our interior lighting was also performed, and additional savings were available by switching to LED lighting. The results have been fantastic! We have seen a significant reduction in our monthly energy bill, and the savings should increase once we have some credits banked. Morton was very professional on-site and did an excellent job with designing and engineering the system for our historic building."
