What is Ecogee?
Ecogee's mission is to transform large and medium sized carbon
based energy consumers into clean energy producers. We will
get there by helping them install green energy, such as solar
panels (photovoltaic), wind turbines and promote energy conservation
programs.
Our vision with your power
With your support schools, hospitals, businesses and factories
will transform their physical landscape into green energy production
sites. They will utilize Ecogee sponsored renewable resources
to make themselves energy neutral. Their campuses will become
the foundation for a green energy revolution. Imagine warehouse
rooftops not sitting idly in the sun, but generating megawatts
of clean electricity every year. Parking lots that bake in the
sun now covered with green energy producing solar panels.
All of this is possible with Ecogee, we bring together thousands
of like minded people and make direct investments in transforming
these campuses into forests of green energy. Aren't you tired
of waiting for the energy companies to bring us solar and wind?
Aren't you tired of waiting for the largest energy users to
"go green"? Don't wait, make it happen. That is why
Ecogee exists. Let's solve this problem. We have the technology,
now we just need you!

The problem Clean Energy vs. Profits - why not both?
Why aren't energy companies using green energy and why do
they still rely on fossil fuels for power?
Profits. They have created a huge infrastructure to provide
cheap and reliable energy at the highest profit margin possible.
It is their mission to do so. It isn't that they don't care
for the environment, in fact they are some of the strongest
proponents for conservation, but since their infrastructure
is already built, rebuilding it to be green is not profitable.
Someone would need to bear the costs of re-tooling the energy
industry - who is going to do that?
Why don't more businesses use green energy?
Profits. Let's say you are a hospital, your core business is
taking care of people with a financial model that will allow
you to be able to do so the next day. A hospital isn't expected
to operate with losses year after year. They have shareholders
and their boards are responsible to make sure that their expenses
are in line with making them profitable. Their core business
is not to go green. If putting up millions of dollars worth
of solar equipment to make them green distracts from them providing
quality care, wouldn't it be against their best interest to
spend that money on anything but improving care? Most organizations
are faced with these same dilemmas.
What can be done to bridge this gap in priorities?
Ecogee! Ecogee has been created for the sole purpose of bridging
the gap between the energy companies and the needs of organizations.
Ecogee is a registered IRS 501(c)3 not for profit public charity
whose sole mission is to transform entities into green energy
producers. We collectively invest in green energy solutions
and then work with the energy companies, installation sites,
and the federal, state and local programs to reduce the costs
as much as possible. We don't give away the energy for free,
but we make it so organizations don't need to spend more than
they normally would on their energy costs. If an organization
doesn't have to choose profits over being green, the clear choice
will be to go Ecogee green.
Energy companies don't need to do it all by themselves in providing
the solution. With our investments and their rebate programs
we will use them as partners in transforming their customers
into green energy producers. We don't have much time to make
these changes, so the sooner we act the faster we can make a
difference. We have the power.
