Astralux Power Systems Introduces SolarCare(TM) Program

BOULDER, CO--(Marketwire - August 7, 2009) - Astralux Power Systems, a leading solar energy integrator in Colorado, announced the release of the SolarCare Program for residential and commercial solar energy customers.

"SolarCare addresses the key stress points of widespread solar energy adoption," said Founder and CEO Dr. Rande Treece. "Astralux has always been committed to developing solutions that push solar beyond the typical 'eco-friendly' markets and make it more practical for the average consumer."

Astralux SolarCare consists of three programs:

SolarCare Protection

This protection plan offers the longest labor warranty and performance guarantee in the industry, plus the most comprehensive maintenance, service, cleaning, and monitoring program available.

SolarCare Energy PartnersT

By gathering three or more neighbors together to go solar, local communities can receive thousands in Astralux Energy Partners rebates -- on top of existing solar utility rebates and tax credits.

SolarCare Financing

Astralux offers up to 18 months same-as-cash, no-equity financing for residential and commercial solar energy systems -- allowing consumers to get solar for no money down today and avoid having to wait for the solar tax credit / grant.

"In the quest for widespread adoption of solar, aside from financial feasibility, consumer confidence and community involvement are the tipping points," explained Jesse Malcomb, VP of Business Development for Astralux. "SolarCare achieves this by allowing the consumer to get solar for no money upfront and protect their investment with our long-term warranties and performance guarantee. The Energy Partners program gets local communities involved by offering substantial group discounts -- which also increases acceptance from HOA's and other community regulatory committees."
