Sunnoo Introduces Fully Renewable EV Charging Station

Leading American clean energy business Sunnoo revealed that it has installed its first utility-patented, grid-independent EV charging station. This self-contained, 100% renewable device runs solely on solar energy. Following six years of research and development and over 20,000 hours of component testing, the flagship system is currently being validated in the real world outside Sunnoo’s production site in Las Cruces, New Mexico. This launch represents a significant turning point in the transition to sustainable transportation by providing a fast-deploying, permit-free, grid-independent EV charging system that can be installed almost anywhere.

“This is a transformational moment for us,” stated Chris Langathianos, CEO of Sunnoo. “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.”

After gathering data for four to six weeks, the station will be moved to New Mexico State University’s Arrowhead Center, where it will provide clean, off-grid EV and e-bike charging for visitors, staff, and students.

Instant Setup, Zero Permitting

Sunnoo’s technology is completely self-contained and doesn’t require any permissions, trenching, or electrical utility access, in contrast to standard EV infrastructure, which may need 12–24 months of permitting and grid connection. It is an industry first that significantly lowers obstacles to the adoption of EV infrastructure since it can be supplied, installed, and operational in minutes rather than weeks or months.

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,” stated 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.
