Electron Solar Energy Announces Same-As-Cash Financing Up to $45,000 for All Energy Saving Products Including Solar Energy Systemshttp://www.electronsolarpower.com/article.php?id=38
President and CEO of Electron Solar Energy, Christopher Quinn, said, "This attractive financing option is a great incentive for us to offer our residential clients right now. We have seen a dramatic rise in interest for solar energy, but the upfront cost has made many people hesitate before making that final buying decision. While not for everyone, Same-As-Cash financing allows consumers to buy now taking advantage of renewable energy tax credits while postponing the cash outlay for 6, 12 and 18 months. Consumers who are hesitant to make large purchases or to withdraw money from their savings until the economy recovers can use Same-As-Cash and begin to benefit from energy savings immediately.

Quinn continued, "Since June, our contract bid proposal pipeline has increased from $10.5 Million in June to $22.3 Million now and we are waiting for decisions on these proposals. Recently, we have reshuffled our sales force and added proven sales professionals with experience in the green technology sector to take advantage of the contract pipeline awaiting closing. We continue to be on track to have a record year in net income and revenue for 2009."

Electron Solar Energy Announces Over $10.5 Million in Outstanding Solar Energy Project Proposals http://www.electronsolarpower.com/article.php?id=36
Electron Solar Energy is attending another trade show in Miami this week, MiaGreen Expo and Conference (http://www.miagreen.com/), in pursuit of additional potential customers. The current list of proposals includes residences, manufacturing facilities, fuel stations, hotels and condominium developments.

President and CEO of Electron Solar Energy, Christopher Quinn, said “We are very excited and encouraged by our current level of bid activity for solar energy projects. We have worked hard to build a strong reputation through referrals from very satisfied clients, in addition to aggressively participating in a very active trade show schedule. Our trade show attendance has resulted in numerous qualified leads which have contributed to the bid pipeline we have today. Although we do not project a 100% close rate on our outstanding bids, even a modest close rate at this early juncture in the year will result in a record breaking year for Electron Solar Energy in both profitability and revenue.”

Quinn continued, “With our recent addition of wind turbines in our green technology portfolio of alternative energy systems, we look forward to developing ESRG into the energy efficiency experts domestically and internationally. We are in the process of adding another energy efficient solution to our diversified offering list of technologies and services in order to cement our reputation as the ‘go to’ company when it comes to adopting and implementing green technology solutions.”

Electron Solar Energy Closes Sale on Largest Residential Solar Energy Installation in Corporate History http://www.electronsolarpower.com/article.php?id=35 MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Electron Solar Energy (OTC:ESRG), an international distributor of alternative energy systems, announced today that the company has completed the sale of the largest residential installation sold by the company to date.

Electron has received a contract and payment on a 12.8KW grid tie solar energy installation. Installations on private residences have been limited to sizes between 2 and 10KW up until now. Revenues for the sale exceed $125,000. Engineering fees and materials deposits have already been collected, and construction is set to begin in early June.

President and CEO of Electron Solar Energy, Christopher Quinn, said “Changing incentives on the Federal and State levels have boosted solar energy sales to both homeowners and businesses. Rebate funds offered to homeowners by Florida's Solar Energy System Incentives Program that had been exhausted have now been replenished and will supposedly be available in 2010. This added incentive has motivated clients to purchase much larger systems than were popular before.”

Quinn added: “Businesses interested in going solar have benefited greatly this year. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 provided a change in federal law that allows businesses to receive the 30% rebate in the form of a grant check rather than an income tax credit. This change has empowered clients to make an even larger financial commitment to going solar. Though today’s announcement marks the largest residential installation we have seen to date, commercial quotations are now each ranging into the millions of dollar. If this trend continues Electron’s immediate future will be much brighter than we had initially projected.”

Electron Solar Energy Issues CEO Letter to Shareholders http://www.electronsolarpower.com/article.php?id=33 MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Electron Solar Energy (OTC:ESRG) issued the following letter to shareholders today:

Dear Electron Shareholders,

In a 2008 economy in which almost every business sector faced downturns and cutbacks, the alternative energy source industry improved significantly. Electron Solar Energy benefited substantially, achieving record sales and profits. In a world of diminishing fossil fuels, we are poised to continue that growth.

Electron ended 2008 with over $3 million in revenue, and is now running at an annualized pace of close to $5 million. In 2008 we doubled our core business for solar energy products, and completed two strategic acquisitions, a million-dollar business unit, Southern Automotive Products (www.sapfl.com), a fabricator and distributor of high-quality machine parts and tools, and Express Communications (www.expcomm.com), a multi-national manufacturer of custom cables and telecommunications equipment. These additions are part of our strategy to grow through acquisitions of synergistic companies, as well as increasing market penetration through our existing core businesses.

Marketplace attention is increasingly focused on advances in solar technology. This is a trend upon which Electron is now positioned to capitalize. As a large volume distributor, we have the flexibility to modify and maintain proper inventory levels to satisfy all emerging alternative energy demands.

Electron entered 2009 with significant orders on hand for all of our divisions; our solar energy installation unit in particular. We are investing in additional international sales resources, thereby increasing our volume, while vigorously controlling our overhead to maximize profit for our stockholders.

Our marketing efforts utilizing the Internet have proven very effective, resulting in both domestic and international inquiries and sales. (Please visit www.electronsolarenergy.com for a complete directory of websites.) We have expanded our regional penetration in the solar energy installation market with a dedicated website www.solarinstallationFL.com. National media attention is increasing, and we have retained a public relations firm to maximize media coverage. As an example, our installation of “solar panels as art” functioning installation at the world-renowned Art Basel Miami in December received rave media reviews. These steps are improving our position in the industry, the media, and local markets. In 2009, we will leverage that exposure to generate larger installation contracts.

With the recent change in Florida legislature a new property tax credit for alternative energy conversion, businesses and homeowners will have a greater incentive to act in 2009 than ever before. We anticipate that other States and the Federal Government will pass similar legislation. Electron is positioned to capitalize on these new opportunities.

Our network of international distributors and dealers is growing. We are poised and ready to capitalize on the explosive growth our industry is experiencing in 2009 and beyond. Our investments and acquisitions are strategically targeted toward increasing profits, as well as shareholder value. This will enable us to increase inventory levels sufficiently to meet growing market demand.

Your trust and confidence in management is greatly appreciated. Our entire management team is focused on growth of shareholder value. We thank you, our shareholders, for your past loyalty and support, and we look forward to a rewarding and exciting future for all of us.

Sincerely,
Christopher Quinn
Chief Executive Officer

Electron Solar Energy Applauds Florida PSC's Decision to Make Renewable Energy Credits Available to All Floridianshttp://www.electronsolarpower.com/article.php?id=7 Wednesday September 24, 7:30 am ET 

MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Electron Solar Energy (OTC:ESRG - News), an international distributor of alternative energy systems, announced that on September 4, 2008, the Public Service Commission of the State of Florida (“PSC”) approved agreements from five of the state's investor-owned power companies which allow residential customers to receive credit for electricity that they feed back to the grid from solar panels and other forms of renewable energy.
 
President and CEO of Electron Solar Energy, Christopher Quinn, commented enthusiastically, “We applaud the PSC's decision to implement a very favorable cost incentive state-wide to promote the use of customer-owned renewable energy. The concept of 'net metering' allows any excess power generated from alternative sources of energy to go into the grid and be credited back to the customer.”

“Headquartered in Miami, our roots are in providing complete solar energy panel kits to customers in other countries. With this new legislation in place we look forward to great new opportunities with the residents and businesses of the State of Florida. We anticipate increased sales for renewable energy systems throughout our communities, including commercial buildings with rooftops, which are also now eligible for net metering,” concluded Quinn.

The new measure applies to customers of Florida Power & Light (FPL), Progress Energy Florida, Gulf Power, Tampa Electric and Florida Public Utilities. The PSC also has expanded eligibility from renewable systems of 10 kilowatts or smaller to two megawatts, which means large businesses with solar panels occupying rooftops can now qualify for the program. For more information on the PSC, visit http://www.psc.state.fl.us/.

Electron Solar Energy Partners with Clean Power Finance to Bring Solar Energy Financing to the Mass Consumer Markethttp://www.electronsolarpower.com/article.php?id=6 MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Electron Solar Energy (OTC:ESRG - News), an international distributor of alternative energy systems, announced today it has partnered with Clean Power Finance, to provide financing to Electron Solar's home and commercial solar energy installations.
 
Clean Power's software tools integrate financing scenarios into Electron’s solar quote, resulting in a fundamental shift in the way renewable energy is sold. By delivering an accurate, professional proposal that highlights the customer's estimated monthly payment and environmental benefits, Electron and Clean Power Finance aim to take solar from the domain of the enthusiast to the millions of cost-conscious, green-minded consumers in mainstream America.

Clean Power's financing model is designed to offset the initial high cost of solar power installation. “The average residential solar installation is between $30,000 and $40,000, so getting consumers over sticker shock is a big hurdle for contractors who install solar power,” said Clean Power Chief Marketing Officer Eric King.

President and CEO of Electron Solar Energy, Christopher Quinn, said, “With record high fuel and electricity bills reported in our areas of coverage, our partnership with Clean Power is designed to help struggling or frustrated homeowners realize new energy and cost efficiencies today. With financing options now available directly from our sales people coupled with rebates on the Federal and State levels, consumers have an added incentive to install our solar panel kits. Equally so, our commercial customers can more easily transition to eco-friendly practices and lower operational costs. We anticipate that this full service financing package will give Electron Solar Energy’s installation division the boost it needs to achieve significant net profits.”
