Globe Solar Energy Inc. (Globe Solar hereafter) is a Toronto-based solar company that designs, manufactures and installs solar products especially solar thermal systems in Canada and the USA. GSE focuses on the leading technology – evacuated tube-based solar thermal products for the North American market.

Before Globe Solar was established in 2005, the founder of Globe Solar, Mr. Gordon Xiao, has spent 3 years to study the feasibility of introducing a new evacuated tube solar collector water heating system in Canada. Two years later, Gordon installed one on his own house in early of June, 2004. Running through a year, Gordon proved that this kind of solar water heater is an efficient, energy-saving, secure and simple product.

GSE IP-195 is a product which was designed by Globe Solar for Canadian and North American market with its own intellectual property rights. Jiangsu Sunrain is only an OEM factory for Globe Solar. CSA Certificate is also belonging to Globe Solar. Therefore, Globe Solar would proudly say that GSE IP-195 is totally Canadian solar product! It is a fact that GSE IP-195 has already been exported to the US and Mexico so far.

High cost is a major obstacle which blocks most middle and low income families to enjoy solar energy for water heating. GSE IP-195 is a CSA-approved, affordable system that was simple to install and to understand. Because the GSE IP-195 is water based, it does not have the complications involved with glycol systems. Closed loop glycol systems involve a pump, controller, heat exchanger, expansion tank, secondary storage tank etc. All of which add installation time, cost, and potential problems to a solar hot water system. The glycol system usually cost between $6,000 to $8,000 to install. Much of the cost difference is in the simplicity of the GSE IP-195 system configuration. That is why GSE IP-195 costs only $4,000 including installation, and it is widely accepted by middle and low income families in Canada, as well as in the US.

Globe Solar is dedicated to promote solar energy and renewable products in Canada. Started in early of this year, Globe Solar has provided a open seminar to publics for introducing knowledge of solar energy water heater. More than 300 people received this kind of training at Globe Solar. In addition, Globe Solar has done some public welfare undertakings, and donated one unit of GSE IP-195 to Chinese charities in 2007, two units to GO SOLAR and Earth Day Canada in 2009. Globe Solar will keep to support Canadian communities in the future.

Globe Solar Energy Inc. is a member of CanSIA in good standing. Also, GSE is now collaborating with Arise Technologies Corp. and Green $aver to develop the solar market of Canada. .
