Great Solar Panel Installation
I was very impressed with IRE - they installed solar panels on my house in La Grange. They also did a nice job remedying an issue getting the SREC credit. I would highly recommend IRE for anyone interested in getting solar panels

DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY
The owner of this company made promises of getting a lot of money back after my first year, needless to say he made "mistakes" in his quote to me and promised he would make things right, and even said he would pay the interest on my loan we took out to pay for the panels. Here I am 2 years later still fighting to get my money, he will not return phone calls or emails, and I have contacted the states attorney generals office about the fraud he is conducting through this business. I have also contacted the better business bureau. I have all my paperwork, and emails of his empty promises to prove what a liar he is. Please, please stay away from this company, I don't want anybody else being taken for thousands of dollars like we were. And I wouldn't have given them a star but I had to in order to submit my review. GO ELSEWHERE FOR YOUR SOLAR!

Passive home solar installation
Our system update was installed on schedule and Norm Johnson was able to interface with our existing controls! After installation of new panels the new system would not operate automatically. We contacted Norm, he set up an appointment to return to our home, and he was able to assess and relocate sensors to allow the system to operate automatically so that it is operating well now. Thanks Norm.

Repair on previously installed system
Norm @ IRE was the second Contractor I contacted after the first Contractor delayed my initial inquiries and follow up calls for almost 3 months.<br />My initial call to Norm was immediately answered and he was on site the very next day. It didn't take long for me to realize that Norm was qualified to find and repair my Solar System as well as being a professional and knowledgeable Gentleman. When he returned with the parts and material to repair my system, his teenage son was with him to assist his father. It's nice to do business with a "family" owned business. If you want to do business with a "qualified and professional" family owned business, CALL NORM @ IRE.

Outstanding Personal Service from Independence Renewable Energy
We are pleased and confident in offering an enthusiastic endorsement of Independence Renewable Energy and Norm Johnson. <br /> As a former Journeyman IBEW Electrician, Norm provided a wealth of knowledge and advice not only for the planning and construction of our Solar Array, but also advised us on the Electrical Construction of our new home as well. Norm was one of the very few Contractors that kept appointments and met schedule deadlines! <br /> Norm was also instrumental in guiding us through the application, permitting and connection process with Com. Ed. for both our original 6kW and later 4kW Expansion, as well as our successful applications for the Illinois State Renewable Energy Rebates.<br /> We highly recommend Norm Johnson and Independence Renewable Energy for your Solar Energy Project!

Great solar partner
We partnered with Norm at independence renewable energy on a 40 panel solar install. The team was very thorough and was able to answer all question pertaining to solar and did so in a professional manner. I would recommend Independence Renewable Energy to my friends and customers.

Repair and Upgrade
Norm had come over to take a look at my system that had been installed by another solar installer. Norm was very professional with his evaluation and explained to me what needed to be repaired to bring my system up to code. We scheduled a appointment for the repair and Norm was on time and completed the work in one day. I used Norm again when I needed to reroof my roof. This time Norm had to disassemble all of my solar panels and brackets from the roof while the a new roof was being installed. Norm returned to assemble all of the brackets and solar panels and it went well. IRE is the top of the line with its expertise and knowledge of solar systems. 5 Star from this customer!
