Problem statement

People all over the world need reliable, affordable, commercial-grade power in places where it doesn’t exist. Solar today cannot produce a usable grid (power) without a connection to a battery and/or utility grid, and state net-metering laws and battery cost are causing a decline in small-scale solar.
