SunEarth, Inc. Is Selected For §48C Advanced Energy Manufacturing Tax Credit

Fontana, California – February 2, 2010 – The Department of the Treasury has accepted SunEarth’s application for a competitive §48C Advanced Energy Manufacturing Tax Credit. 

 

This manufacturing credit is part of the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act (ARRA) of 2009, and is designed to encourage taxpayers to re-equip, expand or establish manufacturing facilities for the production of renewable energy equipment and other qualifying advanced energy property.

According to Richard Reed, President of SunEarth, “We realized in 2007 that our capital equipment was aging and that it was time to invest in new state of the art production equipment.  Unfortunately, the financial meltdown and subsequent recession put our plans on hold”.  

 “ARRA provided the incentive we needed to get our modernization and expansion plans back on track.  I have been very impressed with the government’s speed and focus in choosing the tax credit recipients”, said Reed.  He went on to say that SunEarth’s investment will create new manufacturing jobs in Southern California as well as mitigate an estimated eighty-eight million of tons of CO2 and other greenhouses gases over the useful operating life of the equipment.    

Founded in 1978, SunEarth is a leading manufacturer of solar thermal collectors, ancillary system components, and mounting hardware.  The company remains wholly American owned and operated.

ANNOUNCING A NEW ADDITION TO THE FAMILY

SunBelt

THE SUNBELT SERIES LIQUID FLAT PLATE COLLECTORS

            SunEarth is pleased to announce the addition of our new SunBelt series collectors.  The SunBelt is a simple, yet well engineered collector that generates appropriate performance in the scorching U.S. Sunbelt, particularly the desert Southwest.   In our judgment this is the toughest 365 day climate in the world.  At a time when many solar thermal manufacturers are touting the benefits of high efficiency collectors regardless of climate conditions, SunEarth’s 31 years of experience in the U.S. marketplace has led us to take a different approach.   

 In general, system overheating is a far more common and potentially damaging problem in the Sunbelt than under performance.  Persistent overheating can reduce both the individual component and system life.  SunEarth believes a better approach is to align climate appropriate collector output with overall system performance. 

 Our new SunBelt collector has been designed with the exacting conditions of the U.S. Southwest in mind, but can also be used successfully in other climate zones.  The collector features an attractive and rugged anodized extrusion, standard SunEarth all copper absorber with water based flat black paint, tempered glass, polyisocyanurate insulation, and standard ¾” headers.  There has been no skimping on the quality or reliability of the subcomponents.  The SunBelt is backed by our standard ten year limited warranty. 

             The SunBelt collector’s many benefits include significantly lower stagnation temperatures than black chrome or moderately selective absorber plates, reduced system overheating, prolonged propylene glycol and storage tank life expectancies, reduction in nuisance thermostat reset service calls, and lower initial cost.   

             At SunEarth we believe that in the rugged U.S. Sunbelt it’s the BTU’s you don’t collect that can really make a difference in system longevity.  Solar thermal distributors and contractors owe it to their customers to provide durable and reliable components and systems that generate persistent energy savings for decades.   The first step begins by specifying quality SunEarth Inc. collectors and SRCC OG-300 certified systems.    

 For more information on the SunBelt Series of liquid flat plate collectors or any of SunEarth’s other quality solar energy products please contact Paul Outram or Peter Bliss.
