Solar Community Expands to 7 East Coast States Including Connecticut

Despite sluggish economy in America, solar company continues growth.

AUSTIN, TEXAS & CONNECTICUT (January 24, 2012) – Solar Community, a national provider of solar power solutions, is expanding to Connecticut and 6 other East Coast states. Solar Community launched its East Coast division in late 2011 with sales teams in New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. The recent addition of the Connecticut solar team marks an important milestone in an aggressive nationwide expansion plan that will create over 250 green jobs in 8 states across the country.

“We’re excited to offer our services in Connecticut and we couldn’t have asked for a better team,” said Shelby Ruff, VP of National Sales and Sales Agent Program. “With the price of solar equipment dropping and the availability of financing options such as leasing, the timing is perfect for solar customers and companies alike.”

The jobs will be created through the Solar Community Solar Sales Agent, and Certified Installation Partner Programs. Two fast paced recruiting, training and certification systems backed by Houston based ONTILITY, one of the nation’s largest and fastest growing solar distribution companies.

“Through our unique support and enablement platform we fuel the growth of Solar Community and companies like Solar Community across the country,” said Tom Pash, CEO of Ontility. “We think 2012 will be a great year for the solar industry and our two companies.”

Connecticut’s Solar Market

The timing of the move is strategic, as Connecticut is on the verge of a solar boom instigated in large part by aggressive state governmental energy reforms and initiatives.

The Energy Consumers Alliance of New England (ECANE), which purchases Renewable Energy Certificates from solar-electric power generation, will purchase the RECs for 3 cents/kWh for a period of three years, and become a marketable item thereafter. Also, since 2007, Connecticut has offered a 100% property tax exemption for renewable energy.

Further, the nation’s first full-scale clean energy finance authority, the Clean Energy Finance and Investment Authority (CEFIA) in Connecticut was recently built with a mission to promote, develop and invest in clean energy and energy efficiency projects in order to strengthen Connecticut’s economy, protect community health, improve the environment, and promote a secure energy supply for the state.

The effects of these and other such initiatives will develop a robust, thriving environment for residential solar in Connecticut, utilized best by Solar Community’s experienced sales agents and certified installers, and seamless quick and easy process.

Despite sluggish economy in America, solar company continues growth.

AUSTIN, TEXAS & DELAWARE (January 24, 2012) – Solar Community, a national provider of solar power solutions, is expanding to Delaware and 6 other East Coast states. Solar Community launched its East Coast division in late 2011 with sales teams in New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. The recent addition of the Delaware solar team marks an important milestone in an aggressive nationwide expansion plan that will create over 250 green jobs in 8 states across the country.

“Delaware is definitely one of the most promising states for a bright future in solar. Great government initiatives, and tons of people so excited on the subject.“ says Shelby Ruff, Senior Vice President of Solar Community’s National Sales & Sales Agent Program. “And we’re excited to be in a unique position during this preliminary period to offer some of the best deals we’ve ever had“.

The jobs will be created through the Solar Community Solar Sales Agent, and Certified Installation Partner Programs. Two fast paced recruiting, training and certification systems backed by Houston based ONTILITY, one of the nation’s largest and fastest growing solar distribution companies.

“Through our unique support and enablement platform we fuel the growth of Solar Community and companies like Solar Community across the country,” said Tom Pash, CEO of Ontility. “We think 2012 will be a great year for the solar industry and our two companies.”

Delaware’s Solar Market

Delaware is comparatively young in the legislative charge to energy independence, but initiatives are now springing up rapidly statewide, and Solar Community is poised to help local communities take the most advantage of them.

One of the most supportive governmental programs in Delaware, passed in 2005, was the Renewable Energy Standard that requires 20% of the energy sold in the state to come from renewable sources by 2019. Other tie-in programs to facilitate this bill are rapidly emerging, making solar increasingly easier and more affordable in Delaware.

Also, the Delaware Green Energy Fund is one of the most progressive bills passed in the state, initiated to fund efficiency and renewable energy programs in Delaware communities. A small surcharge is added to citizens’ electricity bill of a negligible 0.356 mills, which adds up to a $3 million donation to the fund each year.

The effects of these and other such initiatives will develop a robust, thriving environment for residential solar in Delaware, utilized best by Solar Community’s experienced sales agents and certified installers, and seamless quick and easy process.

Solar Community Announces Expansion into East Coast and Maryland

Despite sluggish economy in America, solar company continues growth.

AUSTIN, TEXAS & MARYLAND (January 24, 2012) – Solar Community, a national provider of solar power solutions, is expanding to Maryland and 6 other East Coast states. Solar Community launched its East Coast division in late 2011 with sales teams in New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. The recent addition of the Maryland solar team marks an important milestone in an aggressive nationwide expansion plan that will create over 250 green jobs in 8 states across the country.

“People in Maryland love solar as much as we do. The excitement about solar in Maryland is inspiring and pushes us to get out and spread the word even further.” says Shelby Ruff, Senior Vice President of Solar Community’s National Sales & Sales Agent Program. “Plus we are in a unique position to offer some Maryland homeowners some pretty amazing deals during this preliminary period“.

The jobs will be created through the Solar Community Solar Sales Agent, and Certified Installation Partner Programs. Two fast paced recruiting, training and certification systems backed by Houston based ONTILITY, one of the nation’s largest and fastest growing solar distribution companies.

“Through our unique support and enablement platform we fuel the growth of Solar Community and companies like Solar Community across the country,” said Tom Pash, CEO of Ontility. “We think 2012 will be a great year for the solar industry and our two companies.”

Maryland’s Solar Market

Maryland has had an early strong start in solar incentives, programs and legislation fueling a steady and healthy growth in the renewable energy sector.

Arguably the most important catapult for renewable energy incentives was the Maryland legislature establishing a renewable energy standard. This ensured 9.5% of the power used in the state comes from renewable sources by 2022. Further, a 2007 amendment requires utilities to get at least 2% of their electricity solar power by 2022. If the utilities do not comply, they have to pay a fee to the state. Therefore, there will soon be a thriving renewable energy credit market as that deadline nears.

The effects of these and other such initiatives will develop a robust, thriving environment for residential solar in Maryland, utilized best by Solar Community’s experienced sales agents and certified installers, and seamless quick and easy process.

Despite sluggish economy in America, solar company continues growth.

AUSTIN, TEXAS & MASSACHUSETTS (January 24, 2012) – Solar Community, a national provider of solar power solutions, is expanding to Massachusetts and 6 other East Coast states. Solar Community launched its East Coast division in late 2011 with sales teams in New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania.

“Through our unique support and enablement platform we fuel the growth of Solar Community and companies like Solar Community across the country,” said Tom Pash, CEO of Ontility. “We think 2012 will be a great year for the solar industry and our two companies.”

Massachusetts’s Solar Market

Massachusetts is no stranger to fast and aggressive renewable energy expansion built on a solid foundation of positive legislation, and the growth in solar currently occurring in the state may be the most aggressive in the Northeast.

A renewable energy portfolio standard mandated in Massachusetts targets a goal of 400 MW of solar electricity to be generated in the year 2020. Periodic reviews for potential updates of this number due to faster-than-expected growth are occurring as well.

The Commonwealth Solar Rebate Program started in 2007 with a $68 million budget with a goal of reaching 27 MW of installed solar by 2010. It was an enormous success, as in just 2 years, the $68 million budget was completely exhausted, with so many residents taking advantage of free assistance from Massachusetts to go solar.

The effects of these and other such initiatives will develop a robust, thriving environment for residential solar in Massachusetts, utilized best by Solar Community’s experienced sales agents and certified installers, and seamless quick and easy process.

Solar Community launched its East Coast division in late 2011 with sales teams in New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. The recent addition of the New Jersey solar team marks an important milestone in an aggressive nationwide expansion plan that will create over 250 green jobs in 8 states across the country.

“Comparatively, solar power is incredibly easy to obtain and affordable to buy or lease in New Jersey.

New Jersey’s Solar Market

New Jersey has set the bar high for the entire nation in promoting renewable energy through its generous solar rebates, extremely rewarding SREC programs, and powerful solar incentive programs. The initiatives put forth by the New Jersey state legislature make for some of the nation’s luckiest homeowners interested in a solar life.

New Jersey just recently expanded its Renewable Portfolio Standard, requiring utilities to produce about 1,500 MW of solar by 2021. This standard-setting initiative earned New Jersey a solar rating of “Excellent” for helping to support the states’ homeowners and their track to energy independence.

A property tax exemption precludes an increase in property taxes with the installation of a homeowner’s solar system, and affords them no additional costs. Further, New Jersey waives sales tax on the purchase of all solar systems.

The effects of these and other such initiatives will develop a robust, thriving environment for residential solar in New Jersey, utilized best by Solar Community’s experienced sales agents and certified installers, and seamless quick and easy process.

Solar Community Announces Expansion into East Coast and New York

Despite sluggish economy in America, solar company continues growth.

AUSTIN, TEXAS & NEW YORK (January 24, 2012) – Solar Community, a national provider of solar power solutions, is expanding to New York and 6 other East Coast states.

The recent addition of the New York solar team marks an important milestone in an aggressive nationwide expansion plan that will create over 250 green jobs in 8 states across the country.

“Our new New York team is trained and prepped to show local communities how promising of an energy option solar has become.

New York’s Solar Market

New York was recently given an Overall Solar Grade of “A”, and listed with an impressive 6-year average payback on a 5kW solar system. Like it’s progressive solar neighbor New Jersey, homeowners in New York State are right in the midst of a very promising time to consider renewable energy for their homes.

One important variable is the State’s very generous solar rebate program. For every kilowatt of solar you install, you qualify for a rebate of $1,750 up to a maximum of $12,500. This is an unprecedented rebate in many parts of the country.

Also, New York’s statewide solar tax credit is simple, extremely valuable to state residents, and a powerful proponent of how much governmental assistance can help the average solar-minded homeowner. The New York solar tax credit allows those getting new installations to take 25% of your total installation cost and file a simple tax form IT-255 to receive the credit.

The effects of these and other such initiatives will develop a robust, thriving environment for residential solar in New York, utilized best by Solar Community’s experienced sales agents and certified installers, and seamless quick and easy process.

Pennsylvania’s Solar Market

Strong support from the state, in the form of renewable energy mandates and rebates, has made Pennsylvania one of the top ten states in the nation for installed solar power capacity.

Pennsylvania's Alternative Energy Portfolio Standard, enacted in 2004, has one of the most ambitious solar provisions in the eastern United States, requiring that solar energy generate 0.5 percent of the commonwealth's electricity by 2020, enough power for almost 80,000 homes. This push translates to massive savings for the average Pennsylvania homeowner.

In one of the nation’s strongest and most progressive pushes toward clean energy, the Pennsylvania Sunshine provision added recently to Pennsylvania’s Alternative Energy Investment Act is bringing $100 to Pennsylvania homeowners in the form of grant funding for solar projects. This rebate can net savings of up to 35% of f of the solar system’s cost.

The effects of these and other such initiatives will develop a robust, thriving environment for residential solar in Pennsylvania, utilized best by Solar Community’s experienced sales agents and certified installers, and seamless quick and easy process.
