Solar3D Announces Expansion Into Nevada Solar Market Marketwired The Company Will Join Other Major Energy Companies in the New Hotspot for Solar Power
November 12, 2014: 03:30 AM ET
Solar3D, Inc. (OTCQB: SLTD), a leading solar power company and the developer of a proprietary high efficiency solar cell, today announced that it has finalized its plan to expand into Nevada through its SUNworks division and will begin operations in January, 2015. This news follows Solar3D's announcement that it has signed a definitive purchase agreement to acquire 100% of MD Energy, LLC, a Rancho Cucamonga, California-based a solar systems provider.
Nevada has become a hotspot of late for energy companies, as just last year Warren Buffett's Iowa-based MidAmerican Energy Holdings Co. purchased NV Energy. According a recent New York Times article, this has stimulated optimism and growth throughout the state for new energy independence, as an increased "percentage of energy is coming from renewable sources -- geothermal, solar and wind."
Solar3D's SUNworks division seeks to capitalize on this exploding regional market by offering its low priced solar systems through a range of various financing options.
"We are extremely excited about the tremendous opportunity that the Nevada solar market has to offer," said SUNworks CEO, Abe Emard. "We are confident that as the Nevada energy market continues to expand and turn to renewables, the opportunity for SUNworks to succeed is significant."
Brent Baker, SUNworks VP of Sales, added, "We have an aggressive growth model for 2015 and we anticipate that this entry into the Nevada market will provide us with approximately 20% of that overall revenue within the first year of operation."
Jim Nelson, CEO of Solar3D, commented, "We are thrilled with the success that our SUNworks division is experiencing as we continue to gain market share in this explosive market. Our recently announced acquisition of MD Energy will not only strengthen our California presence, but is part of our strategy to grow in the western part of the U.S."
