What do you get when you mix a love for the great outdoors, a mission to protect the environment, and a desire to help others? You get the Horizon Solar Energy (NJ LLC) company, a new company created specifically for the purpose of bringing clean and sustainable energy options to New Jersey.
Founded in 2017 by Hunter Newberg and Mike Bressler, both of whom are well-versed in the renewable energy industry, the company aims to bridge the gap between residential and commercial solar energy by creating an ecosystem of customers, retailers, installers, and suppliers.
Why New Jersey?
New Jersey has some of the most aggressive environmental protections in the country, boasting some of the most stringent renewable energy standards and mandates, as well as supporting green businesses, sustainable development, and sustainable energy.
These environmental laws and regulations make New Jersey an ideal place to launch a business like this one, bringing solar energy solutions to the state.
According to research conducted by the Business Research Group, New Jersey is ranked number 6 on its list of “Top States for Business Growth,” and number 5 on its list of “Top States for Startups.” In 2016, Forbes magazine placed New Jersey at number 7 on its list of “Best States for Businesses.”
Additionally, New Jersey leads the country in solar energy capacity, with 12.9 gigawatts (GW) of installed solar capacity, according to the Solar Energy Industry Association (SEIA).
This makes New Jersey the number 1 state in the country when it comes to solar energy, and the perfect place to continue the company’s growth.
What is Horizon Solar Energy’s solution?
As renewable energy sources become more affordable and more accessible to the general public, alternative energy will play an increasingly crucial role in providing energy for homes and businesses. As more people become aware of the benefits of solar energy, the demand for residential solar installation will continue to grow.
That’s where Horizon comes in. The company provides a complete solar energy solution by offering home solar installations, while also providing energy consultants to help homeowners understand the various financial and energy savings incentives that are available to them.
So, how does it work?
After reaching out to potential customers via phone, email, and social media, the company will schedule a consultation with the customer to learn more about their interests, needs, and goals. At this point, the company has partnered with leading solar energy companies, such as FPL Solar, to provide customized and streamlined contracts and financing options for its customers. During the consultation, the customer will have the opportunity to learn about the various benefits of solar energy and will be able to see how solar energy can complement their existing energy supply or provide a source of power for their home or business.
