Mercury Energy, Inc. (formerly Aquus Energy) is the parent company of Mercury Solar Systems, one of the leading solar integrators on the east coast. Their strategy is to grow both organically and through strategic acquisitions. They secured financing through Oppenheimer & Co., Inc. in August 2008 giving them the strength and flexibility to finance large-scale projects and future acquisitions. To date, they have made several strategic acquisitions throughout the N.Y. metro area and are actively exploring other potential opportunities to expand our operations throughout the U.S. The team at Mercury Solar Systems has decades of industry experience in electrical and structural engineering, solar design and installation, and finance. This unparalleled mix of experience has enabled us to install hundreds of solar electric and thermal energy systems of varying complexity for our commercial, residential and non-profit customer base. Since Mercury Solar Systems was founded in 2006, they have redefined the role of solar companies by delivering customized solutions for businesses, individuals and non-profits to meet their energy needs with a high level of customer service. They believe this sets them apart from other firms in this industry and has enabled them to become the largest solar integrator in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut.
