Scenic Landscaping in Haskell, New Jersey is now fully running on solar power. The trend of major companies now looking to turn green is becoming widely popular throughout North Jersey.

1. Scenic Landscaping has Gone Solar
Scenic Landscaping based in Northern New Jersey has officially gone solar. Scenic Landscaping worked
with Amberjack Solar Energy, also based in Northern New Jersey, to turn themselves into a solar
powered, green-conscious company.
The choice to go solar makes sense for all companies, regardless of whether or not they are in the green
industry. Within the past few years, many widely respected companies have opted to go solar. The
ability to generate your own electricity is beneficial to both the environment and to the company. It is a
long term investment that will allow company owners to put the funds back into their pockets by
eliminating the major expense of monthly electric bills.
Scenic Landscaping owner, Mitchell Knapp, explains why it was important for him to go green. “The
decision was easy. We are in the business of working closely with everything that nature has to offer.
The sun is our resource where we should be absorbing power. This decision will not only make us
money, but it will also hopefully encourage other companies to follow in our footsteps and do the
same.”
Scenic Landscaping opted to build a free standing canopy structure. Due to the shade that covered their
building’s roof, placing panels on the top of their office would not have been the most efficient method
to use. This type of structure also doubled as a unit for Scenic Landscaping to store all of their
equipment underneath the canopy of panels.
With the installation of their new solar panel system, Scenic Landscaping has eliminated all of their
electric bills, which is a huge expense for a company of their size. Through the installation of solar
panels, Scenic not only increased their savings and earnings, but were able to show their strong
commitment to the environment. Being able to produce electricity from a free, clean, and natural
resource is such an important way to give back to current state of our atmosphere.
While there are a few other options of ways to generate electricity, solar energy is proving to be the
most effective and environmentally friendly. Solar energy not only offers tax incentives, but it is a
completely renewable resource, while other methods such as oil are not. Installing solar panels creates
absolutely no pollution. This is perhaps the most important advantage that makes solar energy so much
more practical than oil. Oil burning releases harmful greenhouses gases, carcinogens and carbon dioxide
into our atmosphere.
