Capital Electric
Kapital Electric, Inc. has been serving the Chicagoland area since 2009. During these unprecedented times while we are faced with new challenges we know together we will get through this. We are still open and providing over the phone consultations and when necessary following the recommended guidelines of the CDC when coming to your home.

Since we are an Illinois Commerce Commission Certified Installer, you can be sure you'll get dependable and prompt installation with Kapital Electric. We offer trustworthy products, including American-made solar panels, making your switch to renewable energy easier than ever. Choosing to buy solar panels will bring a number of benefits that leasing them doesn't.

Solar leasing companies often employ deceptive marketing techniques to entice customers with overblown savings, while actually pushing escalating payments for lease signers. As energy costs rise, solar energy is becoming more popular among homeowners and business owners alike.
Services
Kapital Electric is a leader in providing alternative energy solutions for your home or business in metropolitan Chicago and the surrounding suburban Illinois areas. With decades of industry experience in construction and renewable energy, we're the team you can trust throughout each step of the planning, design, installation, and maintenance process.
If you want to save on energy expenses while also protecting the environment, Kapital Electric, Inc. is the team to call. We provide comprehensive renewable energy solutions for homes in metropolitan Chicago and throughout the surrounding suburban Illinois communities. Our experts have been specializing in renewable and alternative residential energy for more than a decade, and our customers have reaped myriad benefits as a result.
You use electricity to power everything from your HVAC system to your television. Rather than relying on expensive traditional energy sources, let Kapital Electric, Inc. install solar panels on your home. Our team has been serving commercial and residential customers in Chicago, IL and the surrounding area for more than a decade.
Electric vehicles are becoming increasingly popular across the country because of their environmental benefits, fuel economy, and more. But the prevalence of charging stations is not yet where it needs to be. That is why it is critical to have a residential EV charging station if you drive an electric car.
Natural gas is well-known in the United States as a cleaner, cheaper alternative fuel source that's produced domestically, reducing our need for imported oil. This makes it an excellent choice for residential, commercial, and industrial backup generator power as opposed to older, more traditional diesel or gas generators.

Kapital electric installed solar panels and an EV charger in my home. Their solar and EV teams were stellar and very professional and a lot of good notification of when they would be out and the install process was fairly quick. Under the solar panels we added a critter guard which had some issues and they came and fixed. All in all great experience.

The technical service was excellent. Good advice, quality work, and I passed my inspection without issues. However, after the service, my place was dirty. Dust on the floor and counters, furniture moved, that wasn't replaced. Dirt on the walls where workers placed their hands -- I think this should have been attended to prior to the work being "complete".

Don and his staff are awesome. I was clearly explained all the options for my ev charger, and I was given a precise cost estimate up front. The work was executed timely and accurately, and they were able to solve issues that were not immediately visible. Everyone was friendly and very professional, and the cost of the services was competitive. I definitely recommend Kapital Electric!

We hired them to install four (4) exterior outlets/fixtures at our daughter's residence less than 300 yards south of were we live on the same street.
They were professional, on time, competent about the work they were doing and they answered any questions or concerns we had. The completed job was perfect, fast, neat and the fixtures operate as they are supposed to. To me this was a prime example of how contractors, electricians in particular, should operate. Plus, the charges were a little high but reasonable overall.

So, we discovered that we had electrical problems in my daughter's

My Experience with Kapital was fantastic.
I was the second person in my building to have Katipal install a Tesla charger in our shared garage.
Don came out, was super friendly and knowledgable. He gave me an estimate on the spot.
A week later his team came out and did the installation. They were fast, friendly, clean, and efficient.
I did a lot of research to find an installer and am so happy I landed on Kapital.
I would highly recommend them for any Tesla charger needs.

We called on Kapital to connect power to an existing chimney fan and to add remote control from the attic to the first floor, a feature that didn't exist on the fan. While the remote aspect presented an extra challenge, the crew got it done. Later, they responded quickly when called upon, later on, to help us better understand the quiet operation of this system. The 2-man crew worked well together and, along with Don's expertise, were able to adapt remote technology to an unrelated system. We will definitely consider this team for our future home electrical and technical needs.

The Kapital Electric team did a wonderful job installing the NEMA outlet in our garage. The team was thoughtful, diligent and respectful. Any hiccup that occurred (with a house that was built in 1890 that is not surprising) they were incredibly communicative and figured out solutions.

Their knowledge of renewable energy, EVs and solar panels is unparalleled. I will be calling them again for any of my electrical needs.

The work was done efficiently & he solved the problems of wiring in an older home. We had to add a new panel of breakers. It was seamless.

I've had a GE natural gas generator for at least the last 5 years. Don and the Kapital Electric people have been great whenever I've had a problem. AND they're nice on top of it.

Don of Kapital Electric recommended, then Kapital furnished, and (improperly) installed 10 of these Exterior Light Fixtures on my home. Thy refused to repair or replace them when 8 of 10 leaked after the very first rain.

I chose Kapital Electric because they were a "platinum dealer" through the Quietcool website. They installed a Quietcool fan in my house that broke 15 minutes after installation. They came right back out and said that the fan was defective and has a bent blade and they had to do a warranty claim. A warranty claim the same day the fan was installed. A couple days later they called to collect payment. I wasn't paying until I had a working fan. We scheduled an appointment for yesterday for them to come out to reinstall the new fan and they completely blew me off. I don't recommend

Great company, the installation took a little while to complete but looks great on our home. A professional electrician in our neighborhood commented on how professional the wiring looks, and they painted all of the conduit to match our siding. The Tesla wall charger has been awesome and we have been enjoying the benefits of almost having no electric bill over the past year. Can't wait to get the SREC to pay off the rest of the panels and order the powerwall.

Kapital installed wall chargers for my 2 Tesla's. I had 2 others come in and provide a quote. They were great, but Kapital had the expertise and knowledge on Tesla which is ultimately why I chose them. They gave the recommendations to use a single breaker and share power between both wall chargers (something outlined on Tesla's website).

I thought it would be a tough install going from a finished basement up into the garage, but they made it look easy. Their guys were able to work through accessing above the ceiling through the canned lights without having to cut any drywall. This

Kapital Electric installed a charging station for my husband's Tesla in our detached garage without trenching after two electricians said we needed to trench. The price was reasonable and work done professionally and efficiently.

Excellent company. Had a different company come out prior to Kapital and was unimpressed (and they were recommended for TESLA charger installs). They wanted me to provide specifications. I am not an electrician. How do I know?

Kapital came out and it was a different story. Don was a pro and totally evaluated my needs and gave me solid advice. If you have an electric vehicle and need a charging station installed - these are the guys to do it. Kapital's installers came when they would and did a great job. The girl that called me for scheduling was pleasant and very accommodation, even giving

Great work installing my EV charger. Christian was very polite and answered all my questions. Installation looks great and he cleaned up everything form the install area. Explained to me how the charger worked and made sure it worked before he left.
Great experience from quoting through to install. Would use them again for electrical needs. They were also the best price quoted for install.
Thanks guys!

Excellent service!

My EVSE had been knocked off its mount and needed some service work (replace the supply cable). I had been worried about finding a qualified electrician with real experience on EVSE's. The original company that Nissan sent to install the station for my LEAF wasn't around anymore.

After checking online I settled on three companies to get quotes from. I sent pictures and described the type of work I needed to each of them (Kapital had a nice place on their website to submit pictures and describe the requested work). I received quotes from all the electricians
