WIND, SOLAR ENERGY: AN OLD FASHIONED LONG-TERM SOLUTION


SYRACUSE—Although it’s often referred to as an “alternative” energy solution, wind and solar energy are actually the original energy sources that powered not only civilization, but nature.


Going back to basics and investing in wind or solar energy systems is a long-term solution to reducing energy dependence, consumption and expenses is according to Building Energy Solutions, llc Principal Rae Butler.


Wind and solar energy, whether used in homes, businesses, schools, farms or in industry, can have long-term financial savings but the benefits do not stop there for this clean energy.


“ The more clean energy we can use, the more energy independent we’ll become as a community, state and nation,” Butler said. “In addition to being less dependent on imported energy, as a community we can also benefit greatly from a cleaner environment; and as businesses and individuals, we can benefit from reduced costs.”


As the federal government focuses on national security, wind and solar energy systems have also emerged as a way to protect society. Wind and solar systems are typically integrated into building design and enable a building to function independently; whereas traditional energy channels are often dependent upon a public infrastructure which has inherent security breaches.


Incentive programs offered by New York State and the Federal Government make it a great time to invest in a wind or solar energy system according to Butler. It can be used to supplement energy purchased from the grid, provide emergency power, go off grid or sell back to the grid.


Butler performs energy audits for businesses and individuals, advises her clients about the benefits of wind and solar electric systems and helps them select the best system for their needs.


Building Energy Solutions works with schools, retail establishments, agricultural and hospitality businesses. The company is a New York State and City of Syracuse registered Woman Owned Business Enterprise and NYSERDA Allied Designer for the small commercial lighting program.
