Green Apple Energy Company Illuminates NYC with Sustainable Energy Solutions-

As America expands its horizons in renewable energy, so to speak, more companies are catching on to the fact that environmental sustainability can be affordable as well as effective. This is the motivation behind the birth of the Green Apple Energy Company (GAEC); a collective effort which will provide New York City residents with the most impervious green technologies, including exceedingly efficient LED lighting and solar thermal systems. In fact, the company’s LED technology requires 60 percent less energy than traditional fluorescent lamps – helping consumers to save around $18,000 in energy costs, approximately 96,000 kWh in energy consumption, and roughly 1,440,000 LBS in carbon emissions annually. “Not all lighting solutions are the same, and neither are all LED solutions,” says Leo Cutone, Principal, Green Apple Energy Company.” After a thorough exercise in due diligence, we selected three manufactures that exhibited quality craftsmanship, production controls, and environmentally responsible manufacturing processes. Our solid state lighting product line is exhibiting rapid growth and acceptance in the market, and will be paving the way for the future green economy.” The company also offers solar thermal solutions utilizing evacuated heat pipe solar tube collectors that work to generate hot water up to 168 degrees Fahrenheit by harnessing abundant energy from the sun. In addition to the obvious economic and environmental benefits from developing renewable energy applications, GAEC is also effectuating much needed job growth in the area due to their need for skilled labor. Since its launch in May 2009, GAEC has been working with the Fordham University, Columbia University and the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, among others, to further advance and develop LED lighting solutions.
