Encouraging Test Results & Cutting-Edge Technology

Proudly developed in North America, SOLIS is poised to deliver unmatched performance and user experience in the portable energy market. The SOLIS has been undergoing live testing on the back of pickup trucks for the past two weeks. It can generate up to 680W of power depending on weather conditions and truck bed sizing, SOLIS ensures optimal energy harvest, making it a game-changer for truck owners and the recreational market at large.

Steven Rossi, CEO of Worksport, stated, "The COR & SOLIS system work as a powerful clean-tech nano grid, generating a significant amount of power every hour. Our test results show that the system can charge up to 45 iPhone 14's per hour, providing clean energy straight from the Sun." Rossi added, "The SOLIS tonneau cover is perfect for the over 60 million pickup truck owners on North American roads. Customers can use their cover to power the campsite, power tools, and even appliances, transforming their trucks into versatile power sources."

SOLIS & COR: A Game-Changer in Portable Energy

The SOLIS system is a cornerstone of the Worksport COR ecosystem. By integrating Worksport SOLIS & MPPT, we have successfully tested optimal energy harvesting and seamless cloud integration allowing information exchange of the embedded power converters. Both Worksport SOLIS & COR will be paired with a cutting-edge mobile app, empowering users with real-time insights into power usage and generation. This innovative approach unlocks a plethora of market opportunities for the Worksport COR ecosystem.

Rafael Oliveira, CTO Designate of Worksport, stated: "Leveraging smart technology, Worksport aims to track solar power generation from all SOLIS covers, making this data accessible to both users and investors. This capability offers numerous advantages, including potential carbon credits, continuous feedback for our R&D efforts, and showcasing the unparalleled energy potential of our products to the world. The potential is real to have hundreds of thousands of SOLIS units travelling the roads globally, representing the largest portable solar microgrid network in the world, all providing real time data. With our live data collection, we could accumulate invaluable data relating to solar irradiance, weather conditions, and solar efficiency in different geographic locations - not to mention track our qualification for carbon credits."

Worksport will now begin final testing of the production ready COR units.
