Solar Energy
 RePower Energy South Texas offers Azimuth Trackers for medium-to-large residential PV systems. Our Azimuth Tracker gear drive rotates the PV array on the pole mount so the bottom edge of the array always remains parallel to the ground. The result: a low profile and exceptional stability in the wind.
A Dual-Axis Tracker enables automatic tracking of the sun's elevation as well. Dual-axis trackers completely capture all the power the sun delivers. Dual-Axis Tracking is included in the price of the AZ-225 Tracker and is an affordable option on the AZ-125 Tracker.

History of Solar Energy,
 Ancient Greeks and Romans saw great benefit in what we now refer to as passive solar design—the use of architecture to make use of the sun’s capacity to light and heat indoor spaces. The Greek philosopher Socrates wrote, “In houses that look toward the south, the sun penetrates the portico in winter.” Romans advanced the art by covering south facing building openings with glass or mica to hold in the heat of the winter sun. Through calculated use of the sun’s energy, Greeks and Romans offset the need to burn wood that was often in short supply.
Renewable Energy in Texas ,
Our nation is currently dependent upon fossil fuels that are nonrenewable, finite resources that will eventually diminish until they are too expensive and environmentally damaging to retrieve. Although the supply of fossil fuels is limited, renewable energy comes from nature's resources that can be constantly replenished. Renewable energy sources include: biomass, hydro, geothermal, solar, wind, ocean thermal, wave action and tidal action. These primary sources of energy can be converted into heat, electricity, mechanical energy and vehicle fuel - over and over again.
Advantages of Solar Energy,
 Amid concerns over global warming, experts have been looking into different ways to produce cleaner energy. There are a number of potential solutions including the use of solar power instead of burning fossil fuels. Solar power gets its name because it is powered from the sun. There are various advantages to solar power that make it a viable alternative.
