RONKONKOMA, N.Y., Oct. 10, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SUNation Energy, the New York-based subsidiary of Pineapple Energy Inc. (Nasdaq: PEGY), has been chosen as the exclusive provider of electric vehicle (“EV”) home charging stations for Empire Automotive Group.
Empire Automotive Group (“EAG”), one of the largest automotive dealership groups in New York State with a total of 20 locations, will provide complimentary SUNation Energy Level 2 EV charging stations to their new EV clients.
The program will be rolled out to individual EAG dealers in the coming months.
“This is a groundbreaking agreement and I’m excited to expand this part of our business with EAG,” said Scott Maskin, Interim CEO of Pineapple Energy and founder of SUNation. “Our business model is cohesive with EAG, customer first, period, end of story.”
Level 2 EV chargers, which EV owners typically need to purchase in addition to their new vehicle, provide an at-home charging capacity of 240v, allowing for a faster, more convenient experience for the vehicle owner. Through this new agreement with SUNation, EAG clients can receive their complimentary Level 2 charger through the Ronkonkoma-based 21-year-old solar company with the option of adding solar to their home for even more money-saving opportunities.
“The SUNation brand in New York symbolizes the highest level of customer service and the only choice to partner with,” said Michael Brown, the owner and operator of EAG. “We see increased adoption of electric vehicles; our clients trust us and they deserve the best. The agreement will incorporate complimentary at-home EV charging stations, training for our staff, and a dedicated, trusted resource for EAG customers. We see month over month growth in this segment.”
“The Level 2 EV charging infrastructure is fragmented with most vehicle manufacturers offering charging stations for purchase and connections to third party installers. It’s a cold hand off when the vehicle purchaser really wants a local company,” Maskin added. “Recent studies show that a significant percentage of EV purchasers are more inclined to adopt residential solar in an effort to offset the costs of at-home vehicle charging - that’s our wheelhouse.”
