Funding Usage
Funds will be used for equipment and training needed for primary install and follow up maintenance programs. Software is needed for tracking of the on going maintenance as well proper bookkeeping. Website development is needed to educate consumers on green energy and provide up to date information on rebates in their area, and have a viewable log of their home and what further upgrades can be made to provide the most efficient product within their budget. General upkeep of tools and equipment can become expensive depending on the volume of work being done.

Business Plan
I’m currently working directly with Generac and City Electric Supply developing a base line home retrofit package for a home owner or light commercial facility to begin the green energy conversion. As the technology changes being partnered with these major contributors to the energy market I will broaden my area based off demand and interest provided by Generac’s sales team. As this market grows I will adapt to each sales areas primes energy alternative be it solar, wind, natural gas, etc. By doing this I want to achieve the ability to be a 100% mobile company. And with my current partnership, having access to the same items across the country will make this possible. I’ve been an IBEW electrician for 17 years and have seen the extremely slow conversion to green energy start to pick up speed. I’ve vested the last 6 years of my life in additional training outside the workplace from smart home setup to large scale solar arrays. For the last 5 years I ve been used for my abilities in instrumentation and equipment that’s being built to new technology standards. Everyday I make it a point to keep up with what’s changing and what’s not working. My ambition to succeed is unmatched and my knowledge of the energy and electrical trade provides old school work ethics with new school applications. I’ve believe strongly this will be the future of the power industry and I want to be on the forefront of that. Co-op energy distribution will just be the start to becoming a truly self sustaining and efficient society.

Self Identified Competition
Currently where I am no other company has dedicated themselves to this market due to the demand for current upgrade of existing infrastructure. So at this time the only competition I can truly think of would be the power company and getting nah sayers onboard My company is not just an investment in the physical equipment that will be generating clean energy, but an investment for people to not have to rely on a failing infrastructure for energy. By setting up homeowners with an “ec-ome” ( my name for efficient eco homes ) they’ll begin to see the positives of their investment and start doing things in such a manner that’s helping the environment and not even realize it. From my experience, once a person gets on board with this concept, they’re all in. Every thing they do with their home or vehicle from that moment on will be thought of completely different and with the idea that their house was only the start at what they as one person can contribute.
