REC Solar Partners with MySpace to Recharge the Democratic National Convention

REC Solar (www.recsolar.com), an industry-leading provider of residential and commercial solar electric systems, has teamed up with MySpace.com (www.myspace.com) to acquaint Democratic convention participants with solar energy through a solar-powered recharging station fueled entirely by the sun. Home to the 2008 Democratic National Convention, Denver, Colorado proudly boasts over 300 days of sunshine per year.

Free to the public, MySpace’s Solar Recharging Stations, powered by REC Solar, will allow passersby to charge their iPods, cell phones, laptops and other gadgets using solar power. While waiting for their respective technologies to recharge, kiosk visitors are encouraged to learn about solar energy, mingle with other alternative power enthusiasts and enter to win one of many REC Solar giveaways.

“We are excited to be working with REC Solar in providing clean energy during the convention,” said Lee Brenner, Director of IMPACT and Executive Producer of Political Programming at MySpace.

Throughout the duration of the Democratic National Convention, the REC Solar-powered recharging portal is expected to provide over 1,000 watts of alternative energy to Denver patrons. The solar-powered recharging station will be conveniently located at the following intersection along downtown Denver’s commercial hub, the 16th Street Mall:
• Arapahoe Street and 16th Street, near the D&F clock tower and ESPN Zone

“REC Solar's vision is to make solar electricity part of the mainstream energy supply. To make that shift in paradigm a reality, we recognize that we must reach out to the next generation of energy consumers in their preferred online medium,” said Angiolo Laviziano, President and CEO of REC Solar. “With the assistance of MySpace, the Solar Recharging Stations are designed to not only raise awareness of alternative energy sources that reduce greenhouse gas emissions and reliance on fossil fuels, but also to encourage a sense of community, both online and offline.”
According to the California Solar Initiative (CSI), for the past two years REC Solar has installed more solar electric systems in the United States than any other company. With several million watts of solar installed, REC serves Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, New Jersey, and Oregon residents and business owners.
