Fat Spaniel Technologies, Inc. Release date: May 30, 2007
SAN FRANCISCO, May 30 / - DRI Energy, a leading California provider of roof integrated solar energy installation services, and Fat Spaniel Technologies, the premier provider of critical information services for distributed energy generation systems, today announced the formation of a strategic alliance to offer a one-stop solution for builders and building owners seeking solar powered roofs and the related financial and environmental benefits. The new partnership was announced at the kickoff in San Francisco of the 2007 Pacific Coast Builders Conference, the premier annual gathering for the West's leading architects, designers, builders, contractors, suppliers and other industry professionals.
"Fat Spaniel Technologies offers the most comprehensive solution on the market for metering and monitoring solar energy systems," said DRI Companies CEO Timothy Davey. "By coupling Fat Spaniel's web view with DRI's turnkey solar installation services and our Lumeta line of highly aesthetic, roof integrated solar products, we're offering a high-value solution to our customers: an attractive solar-powered roof and a web-based monitoring system that makes the most of the clean energy it produces. It's a perfect fit."
DRI Energy, a subsidiary of DRI Companies, designs and builds roof integrated solar power systems for commercial and residential roofs. DRI Companies is also is the provider of the Lumeta line of Roof Integrated Photovoltaics, including the Solar S Tile -- the first solar powered version of the popular roofing tile product. By offering Fat Spaniel's metering and monitoring service, DRI Energy adds system monitoring to its comprehensive list of roof integrated solar installation services, which include design, engineering, installation, finance, and rebate administration support.
The Fat Spaniel energy monitoring system provides a simple, accurate web view of solar energy system performance. The data is used by system installers to schedule service visits and optimize the installation for peak performance, and by owners to track and display solar energy generation and usage. Fat Spaniel's revenue-grade third-party monitoring capabilities also deliver reporting capabilities required to take advantage of performance based incentives and emerging carbon and renewable energy credit (REC) markets.
"A solar roof is an incredible asset for any business, and using a monitoring service is the best way to make sure builders and system owners get the most out of that investment," says Chris Beekhuis, President and CTO of Fat Spaniel Technologies. "With its new, roof integrated photovoltaic offering, DRI Energy is poised to take advantage of the incredible growth in the solar market -- and we're proud to help sweeten the value proposition with our monitoring system."
DRI Companies and DRI Energy will showcase their unique Lumeta line of solar products, including the Solar S Tile, at the Pacific Coast Builders Conference, May 30 - June 1, 2007, at the Moscone Convention Center in San Francisco (Booth 2441).
