A Solar Success Story: SOLEC Celebrates 40 Years of Innovation
SOLEC-Solar Energy Corporation was incorporated in 1974 as a direct response to the 1973 Oil Crisis. The oil embargo triggered sharp rises in energy prices and new solutions were needed to find alternative sources of clean, renewable domestic energy production. From modest beginnings in a small farm building on the outskirts of Princeton, NJ, SOLEC set out to be the leader in solar thermal and energy conservation technologies.
