The philosophy of Solar Energy is simple: provide high quality, affordable, energy efficient solar power products for your home and business.
At Solar Energy of Illinois, we want to educate consumers how the use of fossil fuels affects the earth. We know that clean, reliable solar energy is an alternative to these fossil fuels and the toxins emitted when they are converted to energy. We offer a full range of solar energy products that are better for our planet and will help future generations. Our commitment to our customers is paramount to our success. We will continue to offer the very best solar energy products, couple with outstanding customer service before, during, and after the sale.
Our highly trained technicians install our solar products with the greatest of care, as if it was their own property. Our sales staff is available to answer any questions or concerns you may have and they can assist you in determining which solar energy products will work best for your needs and your budget. Our repair personnel will quickly and efficiently take care of any issues you may have with solar energy products.

Photovoltaic is a fancy word for a product that converts sunlight into electricity. Photovoltaic systems are designed to harness the energy of the sun and transform it into electricity. As an added bonus, the cost of a photovoltaic system can be much less than you might think, thanks to rebates and tax credits government. These savings will cover about half of the costs, while the other half is easily repair over time in terms of lower monthly electric bills.
How it works?
Photovoltaic systems work like this: sunlight strike the photovoltaic module where it is converted into electricity. Chemically coated silicon wafers release electrons from this energy that travels down wires to an inverter located in the basement. From here, the electricity will go to the circuit breaker box, where your home will use it to power different appliances, lights, or heating and cooling systems.
If your home does not need all of the electricity, it is sent back through your meter to the electric company, such as ComEd. You will then receive a credit on your electric bill for this excess electricity. This is part of a net-metering agreement between ComEd and their customers.
There are two reasons why photovoltaic systems are so popular. First, consumers love the fact that solar energy is clean, renewable power. Solar energy is one of the best options for decreasing our reliance on fossil fuels to power homes and businesses.

Secondly, consumers love not having to rely on their local utility company for electricity. They love the feeling of independence, as well as the lower electric bills due to solar energy.
At Solar Energy, we offer two different manufacturers to choose from: BP Solar and GE. Products from either of these manufacturers are some of the best available today and will provide you with exceptional results in terms of solar energy.
With a 25 year limited warranty on these products, you know they are designed to last. We believe that now is the best time for consumers to make the switch to solar energy. Isn't it time to quit paying those high electric bills and do your part to help the environment?
