Cupertino CA (SPX) Jul 11, 2008
Leading residential and commercial solar installation company REC Solar announced it has been selected as a preferred solar electricity provider by Cupertino's "Cool Cities" program.

To celebrate, REC Solar is running a special summer program offering Cupertino residents group discounts on solar electric systems for their homes and businesses.

According to Lisa A. Giefer, Vice Chairperson of the Planning Commission for the City of Cupertino, "Members of Cool Cities, a division of the Sierra Club, have selected two leading vendors to provide group purchase discounts on solar installations.

REC Solar has the largest base of installed solar systems in the area and is the leader in residential installations. We are pleased that they are offering Cupertino residents and commercial building owners an incentive to purchase or lease cost effective solar systems."

Through the program home owners will have the option of purchasing a discounted system directly from REC Solar or contracting with the company's partner SunRun, Inc. for a solar energy service agreement.

Previously, REC Solar has also been chosen as a preferred provider by other Bay Area cities including Walnut Creek, Livermore, Pleasanton, and San Jose.

"There are several forces at play at present which make solar energy a smart decision including generous tax credits and rebates offered by the government and the fact that energy costs are rising on average more than 6% per year," said Matthew Woods, Director of Sales for REC Solar.

"The state of California has taken a leadership role in production of alternative energy and we applaud Cupertino for educating its residents and helping the state to achieve its goal."
