Elliott Customer in Galveston Generating a Stir

The Beall's of A&H ElectricLast summer the Galveston Daily News published a feature story about A&H Electric, loyal customers of Elliott Electric Supply, for their impressive commitment to discovering the best alternative-energy solutions. The Beall family, owners and operators of A&H Electric in Galveston since 1929, have embarked on a mission to "wade through the hype and the dizzying array of products in order to find the best wind turbines, other alterative power sources and energy-efficient products out there" (Galveston Daily, 8/29/10).

A&H Electric purchased two WePower Falcon vertical turbines from Elliott Electric Supply for their project, and, according to the latest article by the Houston Chronicle, A&H Electric already has customers lining up in hopes of getting home-based windmills and solar panels of their own.
