LAFAYETTE, Colorado – Next Generation Energy, LLC, introduces the SunBandit®

Water Heating System for preview at the Solar Power International 2012 conference. The SunBandit® is a revolutionary new approach to solar water heating that utilizes PV technology instead of solar thermal collectors providing an easier, more reliable, and cost-effective renewable energy solution.

The patent pending SunBandit® Water Heating System employs PV modules as the primary energy source to heat water, integrating electric, gas or oil as the secondary source. The NGE® controller maintains the desired water temperature by regulating the flow of energy. The economical price and simplicity of the SunBandit® over traditional solar thermal greatly expands the market for those interested in using the free energy of the sun to deliver hot water.

"The SunBandit® Water Heating System is a disruptive technological approach to water heating by utilizing PV technology to heat hot water simpler, more reliably, and more cost-effectively than conventional solar thermal systems," CEO Dave Kreutzman said. "With the release of the SunBandit® Water Heating System, everyone has access to trouble-free, practical, and affordable solar hot water."
