Zager Plumbing & Solar, Inc. set to install solar at office headquarters http://www.einpresswire.com/article/666430-zager-plumbing-solar-inc-set-to-install-solar-at-office-headquarters http://www.einpresswire.com/article/666430-zager-plumbing-solar-inc-set-to-install-solar-at-office-headquarters Tue, 24 Jan 2012 06:47:01 +0000 /EINPresswire.com/ Deerfield Beach, FL - January 19, 2011 -- Zager <a href="http://www.zagerplumbingandsolar.com" rel="external" target="_blank">Plumbing & Solar</a>, Inc. gets ready to kickoff 2012 with the installation of a 10kW grid tied photovoltaic system at its office headquarters located in Deerfield Beach, FL. <br> <br> With the recent drop in prices for solar panels coupled with the FPL solar rebates, now is a better time than ever to install solar on your home or business if you live in the south Florida area. Zager Plumbing & Solar, Inc. was able to secure a $20,000 rebate through FPL's Business Photovoltaic Pilot Project which will help to make the installation extremely cost-effective along with the 30% federal tax credit currently being offered. <br> <br> The company sees this as an excellent opportunity to lead by example. Dale Zager, President of Zager Plumbing & Solar, Inc. said "There are a lot of solar installers throughout Florida, however, hardly any have put solar on their office buildings or warehouses." The company hopes that the installation will serve as a demonstration piece for the surrounding community and create positive support for solar energy. "With all the negative publicity the solar industry has received recently regarding the Solyndra scandal, it is easy to overlook the continued benefits of installing a solar energy system" said Zager. <br> <br> The installation will consist of 46 solar panels mounted to the roof and will be designed to withstand winds of 145mph. The project will also utilize a performance monitoring system that will show the current and cumulative energy production along with carbon & environmental offsets. This data will also be available on the company's website at <a href="http://www.zagerplumbingandsolar.com" rel="external" target="_blank">www.zagerplumbingandsolar.com</a>. Utility customers are able to sell back excess electricity generated by their solar energy systems to the power companies through net metering. Implementing solar projects are also helping companies to promote environmental sustainability initiatives. The new solar energy system at Zager Plumbing & Solar, Inc. will offset over 20,000lbs. of carbon emissions every year once it is installed. <br> <br> As the next round of FPL solar rebates is set to become available in 2012, Zager Plumbing & Solar, Inc. is confident that more businesses and homeowners will decide to pursue solar projects now that the economic feasibility of these projects makes sense. This was evident in the fact that in the last two rounds of rebates the money was allocated almost immediately after being released. <br> <br> For more information regarding this project or if you would like to pursue your own solar project, please contact: <br> <br> Bert Lichen <br> Business Development <br> Zager Plumbing & Solar, Inc. <br> 149 SE 4th Street <br> Deerfield Beach, FL 33441 <br> Office: 954-481-2629 <br> Email: bert@zagerplumbing.com <br> URL: <a href="http://www.zagerplumbingandsolar.com" rel="external" target="_blank">www.zagerplumbingandsolar.com</a> <br> <br> ### <br> Genesis Energy Daily Report Launched by EIN News http://www.einpresswire.com/article/655368-genesis-energy-daily-report-launched-by-ein-news http://www.einpresswire.com/article/655368-genesis-energy-daily-report-launched-by-ein-news Wed, 11 Jan 2012 11:25:57 +0000 Washington, January 11, 2012 /EINPresswire.com/ EIN News, a leading media monitoring company published by the IPD Group, has announced the launch of <a href="http://genesisenergy.einnews.com/" rel="external" target="_blank">Genesis Energy Daily Report</a>. <br> <br> For more details see: <br> <br> - <a href="http://genesisenergy.einnews.com/news/genesis-energy-stocks" rel="external" target="_blank">Genesis Energy Stocks News</a> - <a href="http://genesisenergy.einnews.com/news/genesis-energy-stocks" rel="external" target="_blank">http://genesisenergy.einnews.com/news/genesis-energy-stocks</a> <br> - Genesis Energy Daily Report - <a href="http://genesisenergy.einnews.com/" rel="external" target="_blank">http://genesisenergy.einnews.com/</a> <br> <br> About the publisher of Genesis Energy Daily Report, EIN News (<a href="http://www.einnews.com/" rel="external" target="_blank">http://www.einnews.com/</a>) <br> <br> EIN News has developed one of the world's leading real time news indexing services.

The profound symbolism was explained by metaphysical scholars Gerald D'Aoust and Daryl Breese. The Pegasus has always been a symbol of the Holy Spirit and Peace. Four angelic encounters led the team to this cave art, now the oldest religious relic which has pushed back the dawn of religion another 15,000 years. <br> The Pegasus is showcased in two murals. One graphic is the first Story of Creation and the other shows animals getting off a vessel which has landed on a mountain. Enjoy this treasure of graphics, linked below. Breese posted exhaustive details of interpretation 'on line' for the world to enjoy! <br> <a href="http://www.culture.gouv.fr/culture/arcnat/chauvet/en/owpt14.htm" rel="external" target="_blank">http://www.culture.gouv.fr/culture/arcnat/chauvet/en/owpt14.htm</a> <br> <a href="http://www.culture.gouv.fr/culture/arcnat/chauvet/en/owpt24.htm" rel="external" target="_blank">www.culture.gouv.fr/culture/arcnat/chauvet/en/owpt24.htm</a> <br> <a href="http://www.culture.gouv.fr/culture/arcnat/chauvet/img/fond0421.jpg" rel="external" target="_blank">http://www.culture.gouv.fr/culture/arcnat/chauvet/img/fond0421.jpg</a> <br> D'Aoust and Breese just published the non-fiction "God's Steed- Key to <a href="http://http://www.culture.gouv.fr/culture/arcnat/chauvet/img/fond0421.jpg " rel="external" target="_blank">World Peace</a>" (Lulu 2011). The Chauvet Pegasus is featured on the book's cover. Like Tom Hanks in the fictional "Angels and Demons", they are the real life 'symbologists' who have discovered this ancient point from which all religion and philosophy have descended- and will culminate. "Cave of Forgotten Dreams" by Werner Herzog lets us see this earliest cave art. Some viewers report visions after seeing the movie. <br> Breese believes the common ground of this new discovery connects all the Holy Books and could spawn greater understanding, tolerance and harmony.

Blue Sky Solar designed and built the plant for client Air Products corporate campus in Allentown, Pennsylvania. <br> <br> Blue Sky Solar designed and built the plant for client Air Products corporate campus in Allentown, Pennsylvania. The testing was conducted in accordance with pre-defined testing and measurement protocols and analysis and computation methods. <br> <br> Online monitoring of the system can be viewed at <a href="http://live.deckmonitoring.com/?id=air_products" rel="external" target="_blank">http://live.deckmonitoring.com/?id=air_products</a>. <br> <br> Blue Sky Solar CEO Bruce Carlson, Vice-Chairman Jim Cooke, VP Project Developer Brady Kelly and Engineer Carlos Romero were on hand July 12th when John McGlade, Chairman and CEO of Air Products, flipped an oversized switch and, as The Beatle's "Here Comes the Sun" filled the air, powered up the 15 acre, 2MW solar farm. <br> <br> More than 500 Corporate and Government guests attended the ceremony, marking the completion of the largest silicon thin-film solar energy plant in the United States. <br> <br> Blue Sky Solar, chosen by Air Products to be the project's turnkey installer, worked with Newkirk Electric Associates, which provided the mechanical and electrical construction; Newkirk was previously the primary contractor for the DeSoto Florida Power and Light 27MW PV solar complex, one of the largest operational solar PV plants in North America. <br> <br> In early engineering work, <a href="http://www.blueskysolar.com" rel="external" target="_blank">Blue Sky</a> optimized the solar field size by precise balancing of the inverters. <br> <br> Consequently Air Products will now generate about 2MW of electricity rather than the previously announced 1.5MW. Now producing 2MW of renewable power, Air Products field reduces the company's dependence on purchased electricity, thereby lowering its carbon dioxide (CO2) footprint by approximately 2,000 tons per year. Clean solar energy will now power half of the company's six administrative buildings, saving $250,000 in annual energy costs. <br> <br> Construction on the 15-acre site began in October, 2010. Blue Sky Solar installed a total of 11,239 silicon, tandem junction thin-film photovoltaic (PV) panels, manufactured by Astronergy and ENN Solar, both Air Products customers. In every phase of construction Blue Sky Solar developed and utilized innovative, cost-saving installation methods and balance-of-system components to significantly lower project costs. <br> <br> "Blue Sky Solar working with Air Products is a great combination as it reinforces both companies' <br> commitment to provide money saving solutions in solar manufacturing as well as the all-in cost of an <br> installed farm" said Bruce Carlson, Blue Sky CEO. <br> <br> Blue Sky Solar LLC (http//<a href="http://www.blueskysolar.com" rel="external" target="_blank">www.blueskysolar.com</a>), headquartered in Celebration, Florida is a provider of turnkey commercial and utility scale solar energy installations. The company strives to persistently source innovative and reliable solutions, which in turn can lower the cost of solar PV in all areas: manufacturing, installation, operations and maintenance. Our stated goal is to hasten the adoption of clean, reliable solar energy by lowering its cost. <br> <br> Tanika Mosely <br> Blue Sky Solar LLC <br> 407 557-2719 <br> <a href="http://www.blueskysolar.com" rel="external" target="_blank">www.blueskysolar.com</a> <br> <br> PR Courtesy of Online PR Media: <a href="http://bit.ly/raJSIE" rel="external" target="_blank">http://bit.ly/raJSIE</a> OPIC holds 7th Annual International Investment Conference for SE Asia, May 3-5 http://www.einpresswire.com/article/387666-opic-holds-7th-annual-international-investment-conference-for-se-asia-may-3-5 http://www.einpresswire.com/article/387666-opic-holds-7th-annual-international-investment-conference-for-se-asia-may-3-5 Wed, 20 Apr 2011 11:20:11 +0000 Jakarta, Indonesia - May 3-5, 2011, The US Government Agency - <a href="http://www.opic.gov" rel="external" target="_blank">OPIC</a> (Overseas Private Investment Corporation) is organizing the "Access to Opportunity in Southeast Asia" <a href="http://opicevent.linderforms.com" rel="external" target="_blank">conference</a> designed to identify investment opportunities in the region's emerging markets, encourage joint ventures between U.S. and regional businesses, and facilitate support for new investment in Southeast Asia. <br> <br> OPIC's annual investment conferences provide participants an opportunity to meet personally with a mix of entrepreneurs, financiers and decision-makers who can best enable them to take advantage of the potential in new markets. <br> <br> Attendees hear presentations by leading investment experts, U.S. businesses currently investing in Southeast Asia, financial institutions operating in the region, and U.S. government officials. <a href="http://opicevent.linderforms.com" rel="external" target="_blank">Conference</a> sessions will focus on access to credit, private equity, infrastructure, tourism and entrepreneurship.

DC Artists Get A Boost http://www.einpresswire.com/article/168724-dc-artists-get-a-boost http://www.einpresswire.com/article/168724-dc-artists-get-a-boost Mon, 20 Sep 2010 20:17:23 +0000 DC Architectural Firm Contributes to Our Cultural Community  <br> <br> Washington, DC - September 20, 2010 -- Could the current economic climate threaten our usually thriving arts community in the DC area? Our area is so rich in cultural resources but when times get financially tough they tend to lose the funding so desperately needed to foster a diverse cultural community. <br> <br> The recent relocation of Perkins+Will, an Architectural firm in DC, left the company with a surplus of furniture and equipment. In an effort to be responsible with their resources, Perkins+Will joined up with Etreev and sold or donated 100% of their items. A majority of the materials went to local arts programs, The Torpedo Factory in Alexandria, and The Lorton Workhouse Arts Center in Lorton. Together, these art centers house over 300 area artists and offer educational courses in hopes to provide a diversity of artistic expression and experience. <br> <br> "Art is an important facet of our culture. When the economy goes south, the arts often suffer the first cuts. I am pleased Perkins+Will was able to contribute to the needs of our local arts community," said Gregory Korthase, President of Etreev. Perkins+Will also donated items to Habitat for Humanity Potomac, and Treasures for Life, an area thrift shop that supports local charities including the Brain Foundation and Life Line, Inc. <br> <br> According to Mr. Korthase, over 21 tons of the material was diverted from the landfill and over 53 metric tons of greenhouse gases were eliminated. Every American produces an average of 4.5 pounds of waste a day. This collaboration allowed Perkins Will to reduce the equivalent of waste produced by 9,527 people in one day. <br> <br> Etreev is a local <a href="http://www.etreev.com " rel="external" target="_blank">sustainability consulting</a> firm committed to saving customers money, time, energy and helping the environment by making reuse easy.

In the second part of the course, students will learn the sales, marketing and business techniques, unique to solar, that will help them land more jobs and build highly successful solar companies. <br /> <br /> "This new dealer package is a great opportunity for solar contractors everywhere. If they want to launch their business, this is the place to go. NST training is top in the industry and will cover all the skills and inside tips they'll need," said Tara Byrom, VP of Sales and Marketing of AET.<br /> <br /> Alternate Energy Technologies is an industry leader in providing dealers with exceptional services. Once students have completed the leading 5-day training program, they will receive an Authorized AET Dealer Certificate. This certificate allows them access to exclusive marketing and branding materials, consumer financing programs offering customers solar systems with no money down, access to government contracts through AET's GSA and ARRA Schedule, as well as highly competitive price discounts on the industry's best collectors. <br /> <br /> "We're very excited to be working with AET. Their experience and market leadership really shows. The new program is a great chance for contractors to pick up the full set of skills needed to become highly successful solar companies," said Lars Rudstam, Sales and Marketing Manager of NST. <br /> <br /> AET Dealers will receive the full package for solar business success starting on October 25th, 2010 with soon to be announced regularly schedule classes. AET's dealer training program will be held at the U.S. Solar academy, a state of the art, 10,000 square foot solar training Academy located in Charlotte, NC. <br /> To sign up for this course or get more information on AET's dealer program please contact AET's Marketing Office at 800-874-2190. <br /> <br /> Selena Alger<br /> www.AETsolar.com<br /> selena@aetsolar.com<br /> Alternate Energy Technologies<br /> 1057 Ellis Road N, #4<br /> Jacksonville, FL 32254<br /> Phone: 904-781-8305 xt 117<br /> Fax: 904-781-1911<br /> LadyBug Shareholders to Get Stake in New Solar Spin-off http://www.einpresswire.com/article/150588-ladybug-shareholders-to-get-stake-in-new-solar-spin-off http://www.einpresswire.com/article/150588-ladybug-shareholders-to-get-stake-in-new-solar-spin-off Fri, 20 Aug 2010 14:02:18 +0000 Aug. 20, 2010 - LadyBug Resource Group will spin-off its New Solar Electricity Corporation to the shareholders on Oct. 4, 2010.
