EmPower’s Matt Mathosian Featured in Newsday

EmPower’s Commercial Project Manager Matt Mathosian was recently featured in Newsday’s Voices of Long Island.  From the article:

Mathosian, a project manager for EmPower Solar, an Island Park firm behind some of the largest solar-energy projects here, including a recently completed 100 kilowatt project at the Unitarian Universalist Congregation at Shelter Rock in Manhasset.

“The renewable-energy industry has got to sustain itself. Equipment prices are coming down, and we’re getting additional incentives as far as tax credits. We’ll accelerate our business in the sector. Today, I’m in Long Beach. The only thing I see all day are oil tankers. What’s the difference if there are wind turbines in the water? Of course we’d like to see the power plants all shut down, if what the government is striving for is a totally sustainable renewable economy.”

Matt appeared in a special series Newsday ran on called “The Future of Long Island: Energy.”  Check out the other interesting articles which discuss the unique energy challenges Long Island faces and the potential role of solar energy in future energy decisions.
