Bringing affordable solar, utilizing American made products, to all of Illinois
A printable, flexible, organic solar cell

Unlike the solar cells you're used to seeing, organic photovoltaics are made of compounds that are dissolved in ink and can be printed and molded using simple techniques. The result is a low-weight, flexible, semi-transparent film that turns the energy of the sun into electricity. Hannah Bürckstüm...A big "thank you" goes out to Scott Faingold and the Illinois Times for featuring a recent victory that allowed municipal and cooperative utility customers to participate in the funding opportunities under FEJA and will help solar to advance in Central and Southern IL equally. In addition to our Solar Business Coalition that was comprised of WindSolarUSA and the following 11 businesses located in Central and Southern IL: Advanced Energy Solutions, EFS Energy, Lock Family Construction, New Prairie Construction, Overturf Electric, Reid Builders, Ruyle Mechanical, Senergy Electric, Southern Lights, LLC, StraightUp Solar, and Tick Tock Energy, there were other organizations that also filed "Briefs on Exception" fighting for inclusion. We want to make sure they are properly noted and given credit where credit is due as it was truly a group effort. Those organizations include: Illinois Power Agency, Joint Solar Parties (ISEA, SEIA, CCSA), CUB, Environmental Law and Policy Center, Elevate Energy, Carbon Solutions Group, EDF, NRDC and likely a few others I'm forgetting. Also kudos to our web designer and photographer, Bill Vala of Chicago Producers for the awesome picture from our rooftop of the capital city. Much gratitude to express to many that were part of this endeavor is being extended here!
Thank you to all who took the time to view our new website, provide feedback, like our page and share our post offering a solar backpack drawing to those that followed the prescribed steps! We received good input from many and, after receiving the backpack (a $200 value), decided that we all want one for ourselves! Here is a video of our drawing to choose the lucky winner...who will it be???
Ameren? Are you next? This is exciting stuff for IL!
