Why Eon Electric?


“Eon” is the Greek word for “longevity”.

eon (n.) 1640s, from Late Latin aeon, from Greek aiōn “age, vital force; a period of existence, a lifetime, a generation; a long space of time,” in plural, “eternity,” from PIE root *aiw- “vital force, life, long life, eternity.” Related: Eonian; eonic.

“E-ON” indicates electricity ON.

“Eon” is a referent to the word ”ion” – the charged particle that is electricity.

The word ion was coined from Greek ion, neuter present participle of ienai (Greek ἰέναι) “to go” from PIE root *ei- “to go.”, cf. … So called because ions move toward the electrode of opposite charge.

These three notions inform our name and philosophy.

Our installations and work are intended to be long lasting– safe, secure, low-maintenance and done right the first time. We work thoroughly in conjunction with other trades (HVAC, insulation, plumbing, roofing, drywall, cabinetry, landscaping and horticulture, etc.) using best project management practices to achieve energy efficiency and ease of installation and adaptability for future improvements as technologies arise.

Eon Electric considers energy management for all its electrical installations. Our aim is to undertake what you need with the least amount of resources used and with the greatest amount of future savings. The electric age is here to stay and it is only the beginning, so we live by the notion that Energy Return on Energy Invested is the measuring referent for all projects big and small. Eon Electric seeks the greatest efficiency for your investment because we know the benchmark of success and value is all about conserving energy and having future access to energy.
