BACC Honors Ilumen Solar’s 2-Year Milestone in Lake Barrington
(Barrington, IL – July 1, 2025) The Barrington Area Chamber of Commerce (BACC) gathered on June 12 to celebrate the two-year anniversary of Ilumen Solar’s location at 4 Hillview Dr., Unit C in Lake Barrington. The event marked a milestone for the local solar energy company, which was founded in 2016 by Barrington native Zach Witt and has been operating for nearly 10 years.
Ilumen Solar specializes in designing and installing high-quality residential and commercial solar systems across the Northwest Chicago suburbs. With a mission rooted in education, transparency, and sustainability, Ilumen helps clients reduce utility costs and move toward energy independence through expertly designed rooftop solar installations.
“Being able to serve the community I grew up in and contribute to a cleaner energy future is something I’m really proud of,” said owner and founder Zach Witt. “We built Ilumen Solar on the idea that doing right by our clients and our planet go hand in hand. From the first site visit to the final installation, our focus is always on delivering craftsmanship, clear communication, and long-term value.”
Witt, a 2005 graduate of Barrington High School and certified NABCEP Technical Sales Professional, is active in the local business community, serving on the BACC Board of Directors and mentoring high school entrepreneurs through District 220.
Ilumen Solar stands out for its detailed consultations, use of North American-sourced equipment, and honest financial guidance with no hidden dealer fees. Each system is designed with aesthetics and performance in mind to ensure lasting benefits over the typical 25+ year system lifespan.
