Moosehead Solar originated on the shores of Moosehead Lake in 1998. My wife and I moved to the wilderness area to enjoy the quiet experience of living on the lake in the woods. At that time I wrote computer software and our generator was the only source of providing power. Thus our generator was in use an average of 10 to 14 hours a day. The tranquility that had attracted us to this area was gone.

Thus, my wife read an ad in UNCLE HENRY’S weekly sale and swap magazine in Maine for New England Solar Electric Inc. She sent for their free catalog.
I began to experiment and installed a small system that would allow my computer usage without the need of the generator. That was a small system and lasted a month when I began upgrading the system.

In 6 months I had expanded the system to 16 -6 volt batteries, two inverter/chargers and two 130 watt solar panels. Currently we have 24 – 6 volt batteries, 14 modules (2K array) and two 2400 watt inverter/chargers.

We are now running our entire house with this system. W e have a real home in the wilderness that includes an electric refrigerator, washer and gas dryer, TVs and computers etc.

We now can sit on our porch and hear the birds and even the falling leaves. We see more wildlife and the deer and moose often peek into our windows. We live in the NOW of Nature.
Our friends and neighbors soon asked for help with systems for their homes and that is how Moosehead Solar was born.

Currently I have four experienced technicians to install the solar powered systems in Maine and now we are expanding the business into Florida.

We are a company committed to selling and installing quality products to our customers. We work hard to ensure that every customer is absolutely satisfied. Customer satisfaction is our main goal. We have a qualified team of technicians and offer 24 hour assistance if needed.
