Are you interested in becoming an organizer in your area?

Maybe--But Not Sure What to Organize

Tell us about your experience with alternative energy:

electrical contractor,solar voltaic installer,net metering.

What excites you about this campaign?

we have most expensive power in the nation,so return on solar power installation will have the quickest return on investment.

What do you want to do to help?

Install alternative energy systems on Maui.

Type anything in -groups- see the info that pops up.

Please take a look at the executive summary on my page and join the group "Paradigm Shift Institute". We are in the process of establishing a nonprofit innovation laboratory in Houston Texas dedicated to inspiring young people to pursue technology careers and to the development of the next-generation of strategic technologies to meet our current global challenges. Alternative energy is a major focus of our program.
Right now, we are in need of people willing to sponsor our efforts or to finding sponsorship for us.
We believe this can be the beginning of an effort that can spread to other areas of the country and create a critical mass of new technology ideas and innovative technologists to meet the challenges.

Any assistance you could provide would be appreciated.

Best Regards,

Norman

They are one of the Industry Giants ask for Nate (505) 944-4233 He'll hook you up with what you need at a great price!
What you're buying is basically http://www.solarpathfinder.com/
this software and they'll probably mark up the panels, Unirac & Inverter.

At 1:00pm on August 6, 2008, Ron Bowes said…: Hi Brennan,sorry to call at bad time I am interested in what you think is the best net metering system available now as the technology is changing rapidly. I am looking at a system 4.2 KW from SOLAR DESIGNS.COM also a power factor optimizer by PowerworKx e see it @ ecotrustenergy.com Ron

At 5:38am on August 3, 2008, Earl Allen Boek said…: Sounds like you already have the background to figure out what you need to purchase in the way of photo-electric solar...but let me know if you'd like to form a dealership in the islands...I've lived there (Hon) twice. Just looking fo reason to visit. AlB

Konarka's list of international corporate partners is as impressive as it's nanosolar technology with 280 patents.

The Konarka nanosolar technology is NOT 3rd generation silicon based solar cell technology, which converts ONLY infared photon light wavelengths, has only a 15% to 17% photon energy conversion efficiency and a manufacturing cost of $3.25 to $5.85 per watt.

Konarka Nanosolar cell panels are printed on flex-plastic ( up to 10 mils thick ), converts the ENTIRE spectrum of photon light wavelengths, has an 80% photon energy conversion efficiency and a mass production manufacturing cost of approximately $0.10 per watt.

A typical three bedroom home using 3rd generation silicon based solar cell technology, would require a minimum 3 kWp system and cost about $17,000. A Konarka Nanosolar system of the same size would only run $300. (Affordable for everyone).

I hope you will check it out: Konarka Nanosolar Technologies:
