IWEC - The Voice of Wind Power in Illinois  

Welcome to the home page of the Illinois Wind Energy Coalition, a group of businesses, organizations and individuals dedicated to helping wind power thrive in Illinois.

We are wind farm developers, turbine and component manufacturers, local officials, school administrators, labor and economic development groups, landowners, environmentalists and others that have joined together to call for state policies that help wind power grow in our state.

Wind energy is good for our state. Wind brings cleaner air and water, rural economic development and electric price stability. Wind farms also create well-paying jobs in construction, maintenance, and manufacturing, provide millions in local tax revenue and annual landowner payments, and helps diversify the state's electric portfolio.

Join with us to help bring more clean, emissions-free wind energy to Illinois!
