Egan & Golden helps client go GREEN

Egan & Golden, LLP partner Brian T. Egan, Esq. was pleased to join firm client John Tortorella, CEO of the J. Tortorella Group (JTG), in the inauguration of the largest solar electric system on the East End of Long Island. In total, JTG's planned 150kW solar arrays will produce 165,000kWh of electricity annually, saving $36,300 in electricity bills, 950lbs of SO2; 320 lbs of NoX; 200,500lbs of Co2; and 10,911 gallons of gasoline. These savings are equal to taking 403 cars off the road and planting 175 acres of trees annually - the visual equivalent of driving past seven miles of preserved Long Island Pine Barrens along Sunrise Highway -- and lighting the Montauk Lighthouse for 100 years. The solar array was installed by Sun Stream USA, LLC, the leading renewable energy company on Long Island. For more coverage of the event, click HERE.
