About Us

The Alternative Energy Store was founded in 1999 by three engineers impassioned with the idea that renewable energy products can be brought to benefit a larger population of the world through a huge offering of free in-depth educational materials on alternative energy systems, a wide diversity of products and brands and competitive prices.

The Alternative Energy Store is not merely a store but a medium where renewable energy newbies to hard-core enthusiasts interact with others of similar interests, learn at their own pace, share ideas, design systems to their own needs and are assured that they are getting the best value in a wide range of products and customer service.

Located in the vibrant city of Hudson at the heart of Massachusetts, the Alternative Energy Store has grown to become one of the leading online and catalog retailers of solar, wind and hydro power systems with sales throughout the Americas, Europe, Africa, Asia, Australia, New Zealand and even to a research facility in Antarctica.
