The Solaris Sun Car™ is 100% solar powered solution that is free of toxic lead-acid batteries. Solaris energy storage technology is vastly different than battery technology, it can be completely recharged by the sun through its solar panel or within minutes from any AC outlet. Moreover Solaris PESA™ cells do not have to be replaced as do expensive lead-acid batteries. They are warrantied for 10 years with no need for replacement.
"I am excited to join the professional business team at Solaris Power Cells. The Solaris Sun Car is a unique and valuable, true 100% renewable energy alternative to older lead-acid golf cars and NEV's (Neighborhood Electric Vehicles)", said Mr. Gard. "The Sun Car provides easy charging and maintenance as well as relief from 'recharge' anxiety".
Lenny Caprino, CEO and President of Solaris Power Cells added, "We look forward to working with Gregg. He will bring us a front row seat with company managers that make key decisions. His professional experience and understanding of our target customer's needs along with his grasp the Sun Car's technology make him a valuable addition to our team".
