Get to Know Earthsponse!

Welcome to the official Earthsponse blog!  This will be a place for you to view news, opinions, testimonials and  other information to keep you informed about the renewable energy industry, solar energy in particular.  For our first post we thought we would give an overview of who Earthsponse is.

Earthsponse is a renewable energy company that was founded in 2008 by Dan Babcock as a subsidiary of Modern Marketing Concepts (MMC), in Binghamton, NY.  Through direct sales in our local area, and our network of dealers throughout the East Coast, we provide our customers with top-quality solar energy products, and even better service.  Our goal is simple - , we aim to make solar as easy as possible. Our team of experts will do the heavy lifting – federal, state, and local incentives, designing your system, and helping you select the best options available to finance your project, if needed.

We offer two types of panels for residential and commercial customers: Solar electric and solar thermal.  A short summary of these technologies is below.

Solar Electric Systems
An electric solar system has few components: photovoltaic (PV) panels which collect the sun, and an inverter,  which converts the DC power your system generates into AC power, which fuels the devices in your home.
During the day, the PV panels capture the sunlight and the inverter converts it to usable electricity. Any energy you produce that isn’t used  is effectively “sold” back to your utility for credit. At night, or when your system isn’t producing electricity, the utility grid supplies your electricity. Solar Thermal Systems
Heating water is just as easy. A solar collector plate is positioned to face the sun, where it catches and absorbs the sun's heat. A fluid (water or glycol) flows through the piping within the collector. Behind the insulated plate is an air gap, which allows excess heat to be released, preventing stagnation and overheating. As heat is collected, it's transferred to your water tank through a heat exchange process.

Currently, Earthsponse has dealers that service areas in New York, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Florida, New Jersey, Virginia, and Connecticut, and we’re looking to expand even further.  More information can be found at our website, www.Earthsponse.com.
