About us
Windfree Wind and Solar Energy Company was founded early in 2009 by a team of creative energy visionaries and early adopters of sustainable technologies. Windfree's team includes a well-respected, multi-disciplinary group of Chicago’s business, architectural, artistic and community leaders. The team believes alternative energy solutions must be researched, installed, monitored, tested and be supported by local legislation. For potential clients, from institutions to private users and from architects to families, we can assess energy needs, outline objectives, determine appropriate energy solutions, implement the necessary systems and processes from purchasing to installation and from project management to permitting and future energy planning. Windfree’s products and services are proactive responses and practical solutions to the energy crisis and are ways to move toward energy independence.
The Windfree Foundation
The Windfree Foundation was established in 2018 as an independent foundation. Our mission is to improve energy efficiency, advance the development and use of renewable energy resources and to focus on the energy needs and education of Illinois.
Our foundation has provided financial support for clean energy investments in Illinois through a variety of programs. Since 2017, we've awarded grants to Illinois non-profit organizations, schools, municipalities, and other local and state government agencies.
Testimonials
Fantastic experience. The installers were highly skilled and qualified. The panels look fantastic and work even better. The electricians were very knowledgeable. The overall job site was left spotless and the installation of the mechanicals was meticulous. Highly recommend this company and it's skilled installers.

I have nothing but good things to say about my experience working with Windfree Solar from beginning to end. I spent weeks/months looking into solar options from different companies from all angles...and kept coming back to Windfree ... They were, quite simply, the best option and the easiest to work with.
-Mark L., Oakbrook, IL
Windfree installed solar panels on my garage roof. They did a fine job taking care of obtaining the permits, doing the installation, cleaning up, notifying ComEd, and explaining everything. They were fast and responsive. I'd recommend them.
