Energy

William Charles Energy is an acknowledged leader in leveraging the country’s ultimate renewable energy source, the methane that is normally burned off at a landfill. The Winnebago Energy Center in Rockford, Illinois captures this previously wasted energy source to generate 6.4 MW electricity – a consistent source of power for electricity for over 5,000 homes.

From engineering and planning to landfill management, we are set to address a full range of new energy technologies, geothermal energy, biomass, gasification, wind energy, and solar energy in order to achieve a clean and competitive sustainable energy future.
 

With over a century of quality work behind our name, William Charles is still guided by the pursuit of excellence and the “Do it right the first time” work ethic that has been at the cornerstone of our business philosophy since 1892. Our attention to the customer and to the highest safety standards are at the very heart of all we do.
