A new partnership will bring the innovative Vermont-made AllSun Tracker solar electric system to homeowners and businesses throughout northwestern and central Vermont.The dealer partnership between local installer Building Energy and solar tracker manufacturer AllEarth Renewables was announced today. With offices in Williston, Middlebury, Stowe & White River Junction, Building Energy is an energy services company that provides full service solar engineering, design, installation and equipment services for homes, businesses, municipal buildings, and nonprofits.
Building Energy will serve customers throughout all of northwestern Vermont and Washington County. Designed and manufactured in Williston, VT, AllSun Trackers use innovative GPS and wireless technology to follow the sun throughout the day to boost solar energy production by up to 45 percent over roof-top installations. The ground-mounted solar systems are designed for homes, businesses, non-profits, and commercial-scale installations. A single 4.2 kW solar tracker will produce enough to power the majority of an average Vermont home. ‘We are committed to meeting our growing customers’ needs and the AllSun Tracker is an excellent addition to our installation options. More and more people are excited about creating their own source of energy and with solar trackers they can optimize their production and get a better return on investment,’ said Nik Ponzio, Solar Engineer for Building Energy.
‘We are excited to be partnering with the experienced team at Building Energy and to be able to provide our product to northwestern and central Vermont. Designed right here in Vermont to produce more energy from the sun, our trackers make solar practical and affordable for homeowners and businesses,’ said David Blittersdorf, president and CEO of AllEarth Renewables. ‘From Isle LaMotte to Vernon, we are now able to serve Vermonters statewide with our solar solutions.’ The AllSun Tracker was selected as a top-10 green product for 2012 by BuildingGreen.
