AllSun Tracker solar electric system available now to homeowners and businesses in Mass.

The innovative AllSun Tracker solar electric system will now be available to homeowners and businesses in Massachusetts through a business partnership with Acton, MA-based 621 Energy. The first AllSun Tracker installation by 621 Energy was completed last month at The Trustees of Reservations Moose Hill Farm property in Sharon, and included 5 trackers totaling 27 kW. Moose Hill Farm includes 15 buildings situated on 347 acres of diverse agricultural fields, woodlands and wetlands. 621 Energy is a renewable energy company that provides design, installation, financing and service of solar photovoltaic system for farms, businesses, municipal buildings, and nonprofits. A single solar tracker will produce enough to power most of an average Massachusetts home. "We are committed to meeting our growing customers' needs and the AllSun Tracker is an excellent addition to our installation options. More and more people are excited about creating their own source of energy and with the AllSun Tracker they can optimize their production and get a better return on investment," said Bob Clarke, President of 621 Energy. Designed and manufactured in Williston, VT, AllSun Trackers use innovative GPS and wireless technology to follow the sun throughout the day to boost solar energy production by up to 45% over roof-top installations. The ground-mounted solar systems are designed for homes, businesses, non-profits, and commercial-scale installations. "We are excited to be partnering with the team at 621 Energy to make our product more widely available to Massachusetts customers. Designed to produce more energy from the sun, our trackers make solar practical and affordable for homeowners and businesses," said David Blittersdorf, president and CEO of AllEarth Renewables. The AllSun Tracker was selected as a top-10 green product for 2012 by BuildingGreen Magazine and top product of the year in 2014 by Electrical Products and Solutions. AllEarth Renewables, a 2012 Inc 500 company for fastest growing businesses, has designed, manufactured, and installed over 1,800 complete grid-connected solar tracker systems.
