Industries, Inc. is based in California and is the parent company of The
Solar Power Store and is affiliated with Alternative Energy Services,
Inc.. Our mission is to provide an array of products and services for
the alternative energy industry. Through our affiliates and
relationships with major manufacturers we can provide the best pricing
and service for any residential or commercial application. Our combined
experience in the industry spans more than 30 years.
Solar
energy is a clean environmentally friendly source of power. Now is the
time to take advantage of this abundant resource. In 40 minutes of
daylight the sun releases upon the earth the amount of energy that is
consumed by the entire population of the planet in one year. Each day
more solar energy falls to the earth than the total amount of energy the
planet's 6 billion in- habitants would consume in 27 years. Currently we
harness about 1% of this energy.
Photovoltaic or PV
systems burn no fuel and have no moving parts-they are clean and silent.
As we become more aware of greenhouse gases and their detrimental
effects on our planet, clean energy alternatives like PV become more
important than ever.
We design the
architecture for the entire solar power system, determine your kilowatt
usage, and research all incentive opportunities. California is one of
the more favorable states to offer incentives to build an alternative
energy source. We file all the necessary paper work for rebates and tax
credits available to the owner of the alternative energy source. We will
design the entire system based on the incentives that are offered to
you. A major benefit of having an alternative energy source is the
ability to bank credits based upon a surplus of energy produced. You
could end up with a zero bill at the end of your billing cycle.
If
you live an area in the world with a category 3 wind zone, you could be
a prime candidate for wind power. We can determine if you are a prime
candidate for wind power by researching the data we have available. We
will then compare this with the zoning laws in your area to conclude if
this is a prudent investment for you. We sell a wide variety of wind
generators from small turbines all the way up to large commercial grade
turbines. Below are a couple examples of the types of turbines we sell.
We are at the verge of a major wind turbine revolution.
If
you own property near a river or large water flow, you may want to look
into hydro as an alternative power source. These turbines mount on a
cement column and generate electricity with the amount of water flow.
Heavy water flow equals high electrical volume. We carry Harris Hydro 2
turbines as well as many other manufacturers. |
