The investment reinforces the company’s long-term commitment to Illinois and the broader Midwest, strengthening local collaboration, program delivery, and client support as clean energy investment accelerates across the region.
The Oak Brook office aligns with growing demand for energy efficiency and electrification programs driven by Illinois’ Climate and Equitable Jobs Act (CEJA), Illinois Plan 7 investments, and the Clean and Renewable Grid Act (CRGA). CLEAResult supports major Illinois utilities, including ComEd and Nicor Gas, delivering energy programs across the Midwest for more than a decade.
“Illinois is a critical growth market for CLEAResult, driven by forward-looking policy, strong utility leadership, and rising demand for high-impact energy programs,” said Ryan Shaw, Chief Growth Officer of CLEAResult. “This office puts our team closer to the clients and communities we serve, allowing us to respond faster and deliver programs with greater precision.”
The Oak Brook office provides a collaborative hub for CLEAResult’s growing Illinois workforce, supporting closer engagement with utility clients, trade allies, implementation partners, and community organizations. The location enhances field coordination, program operations, and client collaboration while supporting continued expansion across the Plains and Midwest regions.
“A strong local presence allows our teams to work side by side with clients, partners, and communities to deliver programs effectively and at scale,” said Tony Walker, Vice President of CLEAResult’s Plains Region. “This expanded Chicago-area footprint strengthens how we support ComEd, Nicor Gas, and partners across Illinois, while positioning us to serve additional utility clients in the months ahead.”
CLEAResult’s Oak Brook office opening coincides with its Platinum sponsorship of the 2026 Midwest Energy Efficiency Alliance (MEEA) Midwest Energy Solutions (MES) Conference, taking place January 27-29 in Chicago. As part of its sponsorship, CLEAResult will host a client and partner event and participate in conference programming, reinforcing its long-standing engagement with the Midwest energy efficiency community.
With more than a decade of experience delivering energy programs throughout the Midwest, CLEAResult employs more than 40 Illinois-based professionals and maintains a broad regional footprint supporting electric and natural gas utilities, state agencies, and commercial and residential customers.
