Today, my new partners at Dandelion, which is a geothermal startup that recently graduated X, the research and development lab at Googles parent company, announces a partnership with Hudson Solar, the leading residential solarinstaller in the Hudson Valley and Capital Region. Yes Im teamed up with a Google Startup ok breathe breathe!).

Plus, I know Hudson Solar. They were chosen as a leading provider of solar in the Solarize campaigns throughout most of the Hudson Valley.

Together, these companies will offer homeowners the opportunity to easily get their homes to go 100% GREEN ENERGY.
Dandelion as reported in the Poughkeepsie Journal today uses a new geothermal installation process developed at X, can convert homeowners away from oil or gas heat and offer them substantial savings.

Hudson Solar, with its on-site or community solar offerings, can then offer homeowners to lower the cost of solar power. A homeowner with geothermal, solar and energy efficiency can easily go 100 percent renewable. The Dandelion geothermal system will use solar electricity and the ground, as a source of heat and heatsink, to provide a home with heating, cooling and hot water! (BOOM!!)

Lets put it this way, average geothermal installs cost around $40,000. Dandelion is about $20,000 and will offer financing and monthly payment plans.

Now while solar costs about the same, the finance costs will be really more affordable than the grid.

"We chose Hudson Solar as our first solar partner because the company is well known for their high-quality work and share our values and excitement about the impact that our combined product will have on combating climate change," Dandelion CEO Kathy Hannun said. "Hudson Solars unique offering of both on-site and community solar systems means they can provide all of Dandelions customers a way to power their geothermal systems with clean electricity. "

"Dandelion has lowered the cost of geothermal and set up financing so a homeowner switching to geothermal from oil or propane can save money from day one, just like with solar," Hudson Solar CEO Jeff Irish said. " … And with our community solar arrays, even people who cant site solar on their property can go solar."
