Is This Gonna Work? Old Grid Meets New Solar
For over a hundred years our industrial economy has relied on a vast network of interconnected systems bringing power from central generating stations to where it is needed. This network has come to be called "The Grid". However, with energy demands stretching both infrastructure and wallets to the breaking point, a growing base of renewable energy technology has emerged. This new approach is known as grid-tied.A traditional electric meter has one simple job; keeping track of how much power you buy from the grid. However, a grid tied system has a meter that spins both ways, allowing you to sell excess power from your system to the grid and then spin the other way when you purchase power from the grid at night. This new paradigm gives you the grid as your back up power and allows you to make money selling your excess generation to the electric company. You get the best of both worlds; reliability and inexpensive energy. This evolution is no different than the communication and information revolution. First there was the telegraph, then the telephone, of course radio, along came tv, next cable and satellite, the pc and then the internet. The end result is the world at your fingertips. Your solar system is part of another revolution, bringing our planet safe, reliable, clean and inexpensive energy. The great part is you can participate and benefit in this exciting step forward.
Auto Tracking Reliability and Reality
Some people will tell you a solar pv system with auto tracking cannot
work in New England Winters. This is not true. GMI utilizes electric
motors for our tracking systems. We have used electric tracking motors reliably
for 30 years and these have performed flawlessly throughout the Winter
months and are in fact still working today. We manufacture our
Star Tracker to the highest standard in the business.Adding Heat and Increasing Rate of Return on Investment
Solar pv systems typically pay for themselves in 10 years or less. While you are paying for your system your electric rate is locked in, no more rising rates for you. Once your system is paid for, you can enjoy free electricity every time the sun shines. Even when its cloudy our designs are so efficient, your system still makes power! In addition GMI can design a system that not only powers your home but heats it as well. By adding an electric boiler, powered by your solar system, you eliminate your electric and both the domestic hot water and heating bills while dramatically raising the rate of return on investment.
Surprisingly Affordable
Over the past decade we have seen solar prices go down while innovations and breakthroughs go up. That means great prices for you! In addition, state and federal incentives are at the highest they will ever be, so you pay less! For example, the state of CT pays up to 25% toward your system and the Federal Gov't kicks in 30%. Allow us to show you how to turn your electric bill into a solar energy payment. Why send more of your hard earned money to the utilities every month when you can invest in yourself instead? Once paid for, you have a quiet, reliable, environmentally friendly way of generating free power!Made in USA Quality

Sunpower solar panels are the most powerful on the planet converting the most sunlight into electricity at a very competitive price. These panels offer the consumer more power with a smaller sized system. Sunpower does this by moving the circuitry behind the cell allowing more light to reach the panel thus producing more power. When you combine our pole mounted auto tracking system with SUNPOWER panels you will produce more power increasing your return on investment dramatically. Ask us for a demonstration and we will show you how our SUNPOWER auto trackers outperform everything else putting more money into your pocket.GMI Solar Can Help You...
