Solar Favorite Now Doing Business in Rhode Island

HUDSON, Mass. - May 26, 2015 - PRLog -- New England Clean Energy, a Massachusetts-based solar installer ranked first in the Northeast and fourth in the country for the highest number of customer reviews on www.SolarReviews.com, is now operating in Providence County, Rhode Island, President Mark Durrenberger announced today.

New England Clean Energy designs and installs solar electric (photovoltaic) systems, solar attic fans, and battery back-up systems, for homeowners and businesses.

“Solar in Rhode Island is poised to take off with the state preparing to launch a new incentive in June. The ‘feed-in tariff’ as it’s called will allow many solar owners to pay off their solar energy systems in roughly seven years, and then make thousands of dollars more after that,” Durrenberger said.

“The federal tax credit for solar, which typically gives solar owners back 30 percent of their system cost, expires at the end of 2016. Between that deadline, the new incentive program, and our No Money Down loans, there has never been a better time to go solar in Rhode Island,” Durrenberger said.

When Durrenberger founded New England Clean Energy, he made a commitment to limit the company’s service area to a one-hour drive from the office, to minimize the company’s carbon footprint. The 30-plus cities, towns and villages in Providence Country are within that self-imposed geography.

The company has served Massachusetts since being founded in 2006, and expanded into southern New Hampshire in 2014.

More than 150 customers – 30 percent of the company’s 500 customers – have taken time to rate the company on the independent Solar Reviews website (www.SolarReviews.com), with many also posting positive comments. This response makes New England Clean Energy first in the region and fourth in the country - out of more than 3,000 installers - for number of reviews. Customers rate the company 4.88 out of 5.00 points.

New England Clean Energy was founded under the name New England Breeze. Originally an installer of wind turbines and solar energy systems, the company now designs and installs only solar energy products, for homes and businesses. The company has 30 employees.
