Travis, Given the high cost for electricity here in Hawaii and both the federal and state tax credits available here, we've had a pretty solid 2009 so far and been at about the same revenue level as last year. We're a very small market out here compared to other states. And we're starting to see more areas of the grid where the utilities are saying that they have reached their comfort level as far as installed PV kWs, which means that no additional PV systems may be installed in those areas without expensive (e.g., in the $30K range) interconnect studies being performed.
marco Uhhhh...Marco....we're you going to share your numbers :)? A few months ago our gross sales were down nearly 70% compared to the same period the year before. But 2008 1st & 2nd quarters we're some of the best we'd ever had the last 15 years. We've since landed some good sized jobs (for us anyway) and are now down less then 30%. We might catch up by the end of the year but I'm certainly not in a panic if we don't. I'm enjoying the lighter work load plus net profit is noticeable higher which I suppose is all that matters. Best, Travis Creswell Ozark Energy Services _______________________________________________ List sponsored by Home Power magazine List Address: RE-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org Options & settings: http://lists.re-wrenches.org/options.cgi/re-wrenches-re-wrenches.org List-Archive: http://lists.re-wrenches.org/pipermail/re-wrenches-re-wrenches.org List rules & etiquette: www.re-wrenches.org/etiquette.htm Check out participant bios: www.members.re-wrenches.org
