Mission

Our Vision: To become a leading educational provider for the renewable energy and sustainable living community.

Our Story

As we developed educational programs for the Illinois Solar Energy Association, worked to spread the message of renewable energy, and attended events promoting sustainability throughout Chicago, it became clear  that the need for information and education was both deep and wide. This need was not casual -- the questions we received were persistent and sometimes even urgent, and revealed a need to achieve mastery of the often bewildering language and tools of renewable energy.  That's when it became clear that there was a need for Eco Achievers, LLC, not just in the Chicagoland area, but nationwide.

Another thing we noticed is that there are thousands of smart, talented and experienced people who have been working in renewable energy for years and who are eager to share their knowledge.  We are excited about creating a channel where that knowledge can be passed along and help keep the momentum growing for the adaptation of renewable energy across the country.
