Phase 2 Solar Power for the Wisenbaker Building —Ron Jackson

Phase 2 after South GA Solar Power, LLC remediated the historic Wisenbaker Building is solar generation, according to Ron Jackson.

We wanted to … remediate some of the problems first to reduce the load, to reduce the energy consumption.

Phase 2 Solar Power for the Wisenbaker Building --Ron Jackson Once we’ve done that, phase 2 kicks in, which is the solar power application. If we’d done that first, we probably would have put on a 20KW system to handle this load. But because we’ve done the phase 1 project and reduced the energy load, now we only need an 8-10 KW system, so the prices have been reduced. Next year hopefully it will be a fully green, fully functioned solar power application.

Right in downtown Valdosta!

The historic Wisenbaker Building, 100 North Patterson Street, is at the corner of West Hill Avenue. It was purchased by Gino Fina in 2006, and is now used as Valdosta Shared Office Space.

Remediating a building in downtown Valdosta –Ron Jackson of South GA Solar Power, LLC

Ron Jackson told LAKE about how South GA Solar Power, LLC remediated the historic Wisenbaker Building in downtown Valdosta for increased air flow and reduced energy consumption.

Ron Jackson at the Wisenbaker Building Valdosta Shared Office Space, Downtown Valdosta, is in the Wisenbaker Building, built in 1884: the owner hired South GA Solar Power, LLC as an engineer consultant to bring down the energy this building was using. Ron Jackson says they examined air flow, average load, and other factors, bringing $12,000/year electric bill down to $3,000, 120 amps/day down to 17 amps/day.

“Consider us as your next consultant for your green energy product.”

Self-contained solar attic fan –Ron Jackson of South GA Solar Power, LLC

At Cinco de Mayo, Ron Jackson explained a self-contained solar attic fan Self-contained solar attic fan sold by South GA Solar Power, LLC. He was assisted by mechanical engineer Danielle, and isn’t that Business Manager Sharon Jackson?

It’s actually an exhaust fan powered by the sun. What it does is it simply takes the hot air, 125-150° heat, exhausts it out down to 90°, which makes the house cooler, which makes the air conditioner stop running. Which makes the electric bill reduce, go down, 50%. My bill was $345 a month now it’s $120 a month. By a simple application! If you need any more information, call Ron Jackson at South GA Solar Power, LLC.

Notes for Mr. Blankenship —Michael Noll

Please note that the following was inspired by a letter (attached as a photograph) that appeared in the Valdosta Daily Times in response to my earlier piece on “Solar: Infinite and Clean”. The Valdosta Daily Times seems to enforce a quota of sorts at this time, so they won’t publish my additional information for Mr. Blankenship and other “skeptics”.

Sources for the Skeptic

I have no idea why anyone would call companies in Mexico or Canada to research the feasibility of local solar energy projects. I also do not know what type of freezer the writer of “Seeking affordable solar energy” has. Either way, I will be happy to share more information, so that anyone interested in solar energy can do more research and educate himself.

At the state level you can contact the “Georgia Solar Energy Association” (www.gasolar.org/) to learn more about the viability of solar power in 2011, which is quite different from the situation in 2001. A larger solar firm our community Continue reading
