Company’s first grid-independent, solar-powered EV charging solution now live after six years of development

LAS CRUCES, N.M., June 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Sunnoo, a pioneering American clean energy company, today announced it has deployed its first utility-patented, grid-independent EV charging station—a fully renewable, self-contained unit that operates entirely on solar power. After six years of R&D and more than 20,000 hours of component testing, the flagship system is now undergoing real-world validation outside Sunnoo’s Las Cruces, New Mexico manufacturing facility. The launch marks a pivotal milestone in the shift toward sustainable transportation—offering a grid-independent, permit-free, and fast-deploying EV charging solution that can be placed nearly anywhere.

“This is a transformational moment for us,” said Chris Langathianos, Sunnoo’s CEO. “For the first time, our work is moving from concept and development into active, real-world use. The performance so far has met or exceeded expectations, and we are now actively seeking strategic partners to help scale commercialization. The technology is ready—and the market is demanding faster, cleaner, and more flexible charging infrastructure.”

Following four to six weeks of data collection, the station will be relocated to the Arrowhead Center at New Mexico State University, where it will deliver clean, off-grid EV and e-bike charging for students, faculty, and visitors.

Instant Setup, Zero Permitting

Unlike traditional EV infrastructure, which can require 12-24 months of permitting and grid connection, Sunnoo’s system is entirely self-contained and requires no permits, trenching, or electrical utility access. It can be delivered, installed, and operational in minutes — not weeks or months —an industry first that dramatically reduces barriers to EV infrastructure deployment.

Robust Specs and High Performance

Solar Array: 6.5kW bifacial array with patented dual-axis, single-motor tracking turret
Tracking Advantage: Captures 50–62% more energy than fixed solar arrays, with software-driven positioning that adds another 8–12% daily solar gain
Battery Capacity: Configurable between 24–100 kWh; pilot unit currently operating with an 80 kWh pack
Charging Output: Level 2 charging via two NACS connectors, powered by a 60A AC circuit
Range Delivery: 8 kW+ charging rate, delivering up to 42 miles of range per hour of charge – up to 28% more charging power than the closest competitor (10–30 miles/hour)
Trickle Charging: Optional 7.5kW 240VAC outlet for e-bikes or light electric vehicles
Dimensions: Base footprint of 16 ft. x 8 ft., with a 20 ft. x 8 ft. solar canopy and 16 ft. height
Base Weight: Over 9,000 lbs, with <9 psi surface load for versatile site placement
Weather Resilience: Engineered for all-season deployment, including high-wind and remote environments

The modular system can support additional solar turrets, charging connections, and different battery sizes, making it highly adaptable for large-scale deployments.

Strategic Path Forward

With field testing already exceeding performance expectations, Sunnoo is actively seeking commercialization partners in higher education, municipalities, and commercial fleet operations. The team believes their solution offers the fastest and most flexible path to scalable, clean charging infrastructure in the US and beyond.

“Our mission from day one has been to eliminate the infrastructure hurdles that have slowed EV adoption,” said Martin Gero, Sunnoo’s Founder and Chief Technology Officer. “We engineered a solution that delivers fast, sustainable charging with no permitting delays, no construction headaches, and no grid dependency. After years of refinement, it’s incredibly rewarding to see our vision come to life on the ground.”

National Recognition

Sunnoo’s innovation was recently featured on The Blox, the world’s largest entrepreneurship docuseries. Selected from a pool of more than 150,000 applicants, the company competed as one of the top early-stage startups in the U.S. The new season is slated to premiere during Summer 2025.
