The American Solar Energy Society (ASES)

As a birthday present in 2006, my wife bought me a membership in the American Solar Energy Society (ASES). Included with the membership was a subscription to the Solar Today magazine.

I am very interested in solar energy, along with other renewable energies. I had never heard of ASES, or Solar Today.

The site is well organized and the front page is a great landing platform, with pointed directions for various interests and resources. A few that caught me eye were:

  • a directory of companies dealing in renewables
  • help for energy professionals
  • a "newsroom" with more than general news

The site appears to have several main purposes: to inform the general public, support business professions, educate the do-it-yourself types, and sponsor events and activities.

If you have any interest in renewable energy, this is a great site to browse through. They have lots of links to other resources around the US and they are part of the International Solar Energy Society, with information on a world scale.
