When Dovetail was formed, solar panels were incredibly expensive -- but still a substantial savings for many who could not afford to have a utility company run power to their homes. A little federal and state legislation changed everything by helping the company expand to commercial applications. A member of the University of Toledo Clean and Alternative Energy Incubator, Dovetail now provides energy systems for solar electric, solar thermal and wind -- and has installed 175 systems such across Ohio and its neighboring states. With offices in all corners of Ohio Dovetail employed 32 full time employees near the end of 2010, but was projecting a possible 50 by the end of 2011.
