A CASE STUDY
Southern New Hampshire Business Specializes in Energy Efficiency
Owners John Haithcock and Phil Morano started Adros Energy in a basement in Nashua in January 2009, the result of the merger of two separate operations following a GHGERF funded energy efficiency training course. The company now has eight employees in its own Amherst building.
Mr. Haithcock and Mr. Morano took the Lakes Region Community College’s (LRCC) Building Analyst course and became certified Building Performance Institute (BPI) Building Analysts. Over the past year, the company conducted 125 energy audits and performed any weatherization projects with outstanding results.

What is an Energy Audit and do I really need one.
November 17, 2010
Build Green NH Newsletter
By John Haithcock
Adros Energy Sr. Auditor
I have put some additional insulation in the attic and my home is only 6 years old. My windows are good and I weather stripped the doors. I?m spending about $3,000.00 a year for oil and my electric bill is about $150.00 a month. I?m good to go right? Not necessarily. If you want to learn how to save money and increase comfort, you need to get a professional Energy Audit.
The Energy Audit should be done by a trained, experienced professional with a Building Performance Institute (BPI) or similar certification. This will help ensure you get a comprehensive audit done to the BPI standards. Check the ID of the person performing the Audit and make note of it. A comprehensive Energy Audit will provide you with an Energy Game Plan, that will focus on conservation, building performance, ventilation, lighting, mechanical equipment, appliances, and renewable energy solutions.

AMHERST – A young green energy company that specializes in energy audits and alternative-energy education, as well as designing and marketing solar, geothermal and wind systems, has opened a new headquarters in Amherst.
Adros Energy, founded in Nashua by Phil Morano 13 months ago, is the result of a merger of local companies GEO-AEC and Hollis Renewable Energy Systems. John Haithcock, vice president of field operations, and Matt Currier, vice president of sales and marketing, said the move to larger headquarters at 5 Eastern Ave., Unit 10, which they completed earlier this month, gives the company space to expand the scope of its operation, including a classroom where they can hold seminars.
“Our approach is to start with an energy audit to find out what’s wrong, where the leaks are in your house or business (building) that are wasting energy and money,” Haithcock said. “People are surprised at how much they can save,” he said, adding that homeowners who heed their post-audit recommendations often save as much as 30 percent of their heating/cooling costs by doing such things as installing weatherstripping, replacing missing insulation, or upgrading doors or windows.

link to original Press Release - prlog.org
Adros Hybrid Energy Solutions lead the way for Green Technology to bloom in the Clean-Energy Market.
Custom Solar, Geothermal and Wind Solutions coupled with Expert Consulting Services to offer Unique Green Energy Conversion Plans for residential and commercial consumers
Adros Energy; a leading green energy company in New England, sells and installs solar, geothermal and wind turbine solutions to harness free energy from the earth’s renewable resources. The Adros hybrid energy systems generate free, and clean heating, cooling and electricity to counter the soaring cost and environmental harm that comes from the use of fossil fuels. The company takes a consultative approach to educate clients about recent technology advances, system cost reductions and lucrative financial incentives associated with using green energy. Their energy consultants explore with clients the many economic and environmental advantages of using renewable energy to power their homes and businesses. This unique approach has helped the company create immediate and significant market demand for their products and services. “The green movement is rapidly expanding the use of clean energy from the early adopters to mainstream deployment of clean energy systems” says Matt Currier, president of Adros Energy. “The recent passing of the American Clean Energy & Security Act of 2009 by congress has increased the rush to use our hybrid energy systems. We are inundated with people eager to learn about our systems, how they work and how to leverage the advantages they offer.”
Clean energy systems that produce heat, cooling, and electricity, with a very low carbon foot print, are quickly becoming the accepted and desired practice for government, business, and individual consumers. People are eager to learn about alternative energy technology and how it can improve the profitability of their business or reduce home costs to stretch budgets. “There is a tremendous amount of information about clean energy available that can be outdated or inaccurate. This often mystifies or confuses how the technology works and pays back” says founder Phil Morano, engineering chief at Adros. “We strive to simplify the conversion to green energy for our customers.
Adros offers a breadth of alternative energy solutions that are specifically developed for each customer. Adros compliments these product offerings, with energy consulting, system design and financial services. The company works with customers to develop a comprehensive green energy conversion plan. Adros installs their solutions in a phased fashion to match the customer’s conversion schedule and budget.
