SUNSLATES Solar New Jersey debut installation on my home

I feel that today, with pollution out of control, U.S. currency flowing unabatedly to the overseas oil rich countries and the fate and well being of our planet being decided by politicians that have their own private agendas, my mission takes on a new level of urgency.

Formerly, the U.S. was the world leader in solar energy. Today, we lag behind countries like Japan and Germany, barely contributing a meager 10% to the global solar market.

I am proud that my state, New Jersey, holds the distinction of having the highest rebate in the country, which encourages the installation of solar energy systems. We are doing what the federal government should be doing for every state in the nation.

The American public needs a stronger voice with our elected officials to demand that renewable forms of energy become the rule in our country, not the exception.
