With Chester Birchwood, Bernie Klinger and Susan Sommers, New York Solar
Systems LLC.

Solar thermal technology absorbs the sun's energy to heat hot water and
interior spaces for buildings. While this "other solar" may not be as well
known as photovoltaics - the fast growing technology that converts light
into electricity - its ultimate potential to reduce our dependence on fossil
fuels is no less promising. And as a distributed rooftop technology with a
very attractive return on investment, solar thermal can dramatically slash
energy budgets for property owners of all categories right here in the New
York City area, where heating prices are among the highest in the country.

Join CEO Chester Birchwood, Bernie Klinger and Susan Sommers of New York
Solar Systems LLC for this comprehensive presentation on solar thermal
technology's potential, diverse applications and economic and environmental
benefits. The speakers will provide a complete overview of how the
technology works and what it means to be a solar thermal owner in New York.

(New York Solar Systems is a leading provider of solar thermal and high
efficiency heating systems based in Canarsie, Brooklyn.)

more cost-effective ways to implement solar power in New York State. Since
then, we've done over 20 presentations around the city, and we'd love to
come to your neighborhood, too.

Awareness and interest in solar power is growing every day, and now is the
perfect time to pass new incentives and increase public awareness about the
benefits that increased solar energy production could bring to our state.

To arrange a presentation at your local school, church or community center,
call us at 212-505-6050.
