Abstract: We show that Haar measure is a unique measure on a torus or more generally a solenoid $X$ invariant under a not virtually cyclic totally irreducible $\mathbb Z^d$-action by automorphisms of $X$ such that at least one element of the action acts with positive entropy. We also give a corresponding theorem in the non-irreducible case. These results have applications regarding measurable factors and joinings of these algebraic $\mathbb Z^d$-actions.
