The Tennessee Solar Energy Association is a charter member of the
American Solar Energy
Society (ASES). We are a registered 501c(3) organization, so donations to us are tax deductible for you.
We are dedicated to educating Tennesseans about the many unique benefits of using solar energy. We invite all solar energy professionals, educators, policy makers, business people, and environmentally conscious citizens to join us in teaching others to view our sun’s energy output as the extremely valuable resource it is.
We believe that widespread adoption of solar technology in the state of Tennessee will help create energy independence, lessen harmful environmental impacts, and result in cost savings for consumers. Help us achieve our mission by joining, donating, and sharing our mission with others.

I need some information on companies who provide installation of solar panels.
Thanks,
Go to our website http://www.tnsolarenergy.org, then select tab “Resources” go down the list to List of Tennessee NABCEP Certified Installers. These are the folks that the Tennessee Solar Institute list as solar installers. The other selection to use is the NABCEP. This is a new industry but I am sure that one of these will be able to answer all your questions regarding solar installation.

With many stories about extended grid power outages due to weather related events, has any thought been given about making use of solar installations being used as a temporary electric source rather than gas powered generators? Could modifications be designed for point of connection changes to allow for this? Tom Leach
Yeah there are a lot of backup power systems powered by solar. If you Google Solar Powered Generator you will get a lot of options. If you are wanting a Tennessee made system, look at: http://www.gbtsolar.com/2101.html and if you want something bigger: http://outpostsolar.com/
