Our primary focus is remaining competitive and reliable, while constantly working towards increased system efficiency on every project. We apply innovative technology and exclusively engineered products to achieve optimal power consumption and renewable energy for Commercial, Not-For-Profit and Residential applications, which all lend hand to “KEEPING AMERICA GREEN”!

3. Currently, over 85 percent of U.S. energy needs are being supplied by fossil fuels – oil, coal, and natural gas. However, the world’s supply of fossil fuels is limited, and burning them produces dangerous by-products and pollutants. In addition to helping the environment, homeowners who utilize solar power help their bank accounts as well. With lower utility bills from month to month, homeowners and companies who invest in solar equipment can and often do pay for the system outright. Numerous solar loans and financial incentives also exist to reward clean and renewable energy efficiency. Solar technology has also come a long way since 1954, when the first solar panel was invented.. Even more encouraging is the fact that solar technology continues to advance at an astonishing pace to offer our clients and customers more accessible, convenient, and, potentially, more affordable options over time. At American Solar Energy Group…we see the potential of solar power for our homes, businesses, organizations and the environment as a whole. We know for certain that homeowners see this potential too, as we receive a growing amount of requests daily for converting to solar electricity. Many solar customers seek to convert sunlight into electrical power using photovoltaic (PV) devices. Each PV cell is made from a semiconductor, usually silicon, which enables electrons to create an electrical current harvested by metal borders. From there, it enters an inverter, where it can be transferred to a home’s utility panel for useable energy. These PV modules are usually installed to rooftops and/or ground-mount. ASEG...KEEPING AMERICA GREEN!

4. As providers of Photo Voltaic Technology, we have an obligation to educate the client and offer them the most feasible options for making their project affordable. Our financial experts will make sure your project is economically structured for optimal R.O.I. with regards to filing State Rebates, Fed Tax Credits, Non-Profit applications, Grants, Financing, PPA’s and Renewable Energy Credits. At ASEG, we design, engineer, and handle all reports, administration and installation with (no sub-contracting or middlemen). This also allows us to guarantee the BEST Price/Watt,.. ( all-inclusive ).. delivered and installed anywhere in the US. All projects are designed by our highly experienced Management Team of Master Electricians and NABCEP Certified PM’s. We also specialize in Reducing Energy Consumption by implementing power factoring equipment such as capacitors, patented HVAC and re-fridge optimal cycling modules, high-performance lubricants, solar fans, insulation Barrier and other highly-efficient devices, usually reducing our applicable client’s existing energy consumption between 18 - 45%. ASEG is now preparing to implement other newly patented devices as well. ASEG...KEEPING AMERICA GREEN!

5. Energy Evaluation An energy efficient home or business is the best place to start! Our focus is optimizing home energy usage. Converting to FREE Solar Electricity is one obvious remedy. However, we can provide a very thorough energy performance audit identifying those areas where energy savings could be realized. The great thing about an Energy Audits is that they give you a clear snapshot of what needs to be improved, eliminating the guesswork and highlighting problems that you may not have otherwise identified. For residential, some local power companies offer to conduct Home Energy Audits for free. It’s worth inquiring with your current power company to gather any advice they may offer about Audit options available in your area. Also, certified professional Home Energy Auditors will inspect your home at a fee that varies from state to state. For information about Home Energy Audits in your area, check the helpful Energy Star database. Energy wasting appliances or devices have a significant impact on your annual utility bill. A programmable thermostat, for example, is an an energy saver and a very cost effective measure. Being informed of the potential energy savings allows the homeowner to make better decisions in the area of conservation and at time of remodel or replacement due to obsolescence. We specialize in Reducing Energy Consumption by implementing power factoring equipment such as capacitors, patented HVAC and re-fridge optimal cycling modules, high-performance lubricants, solar fans, insulation Barrier and other patented programmable load consuming devices. Proper application of these solutions often reduces one’s existing energy consumption between 20-40%.

6. The Invention of the word… (Negawatt) It hasn’t yet made it into the Webster’s Dictionary yet, but it is Certainly in ASEG’s vocabulary. Every negawatt generated has the potential to increase our wealth and health as few other investments can. Negawatts enable us to do more with less and the opportunities are almost boundless. Energy efficiency is the great new energy resource of our future and a vital key to a sustainable environment.” Enormous amounts of energy are wasted in North America . ($300 billion per year in the U.S. and $30 billion per year in Canada ) By increasing our energy efficiency we can “generate” large amounts of power without building any new power plants or buying any fuel for existing plants. When converting to Clean Solar Electricity, you are sending unused watts..(or negawatts) back to the power plant, that can sell the electricity saved to someone else without having to make it all over again. Of course generating negawatts not only SAVES MONEY, but also reduces greenhouse gas emissions! Negawatt (n) – a measure of energy efficiency; a unit in watts of energy saved. No two solar homes are exactly the same, but most are built around the same basic goals. These include increasing efficiency, implementing smart savings, and producing clean energy from our most untapped and renewable resource…The Sun.

7. While some businesses and government entities finance their large-scale solar power installations using tried-and-true financing vehicles such as long-term debt, municipal bonds, bank loans, operating leases and standard project financing, many organizations today are choosing to go solar and become part of the Green movement through a recent financing innovation known as a “power purchase agreement.” (PPA) American Solar Energy Group is a leader in integrating the conversion of standard costly grid-tied electricity being leased from the utility companies each month, to clean & renewable solar electrical energy known as (photo-voltaic) technology. We have the financial expertise for structuring an extremely economically beneficial PPA for our Clients and Hosts. The system costs the client ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.! In a power purchase agreement (PPA), A separate company finances and owns the solar system and then sells you, the end user, the electricity. This enables you to manage your organization without the hassles or up-front costs of ownership while enjoying all the advantages of going solar, including the ability to avoid the incredible increases of long-term electricity costs that are expected to rise at record-breaking rates.
