SolarBotanic Trees <\/a><\/strong>announces the arrival of its ‘solar tree’ designed to offer sustainable energy, suited to large-scale commercial environments such as flagship office sites and sports stadia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The SolarBotanic Tree features a new Photovoltaic (PV) 3D leaf-shaped nano-technology to harness solar energy for charging and energy storage. It has been developed in collaboration with Co-Innovate \u2013 a business support programme which supports SMEs in London by using academic and innovation resources at Brunel University London, the Manufacturing Technology Centre (MTC) in Coventry and the AMRC’s Design and Prototyping Group who will be conducting the prototype testing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This first-generation SolarBotanic Tree will eventually spawn a family of products, primarily aimed at the rapid Electric Vehicle charging market for homes, businesses and commercial car parks, where solar power can be captured and stored for charging points. It will also encompass a sophisticated AI-driven energy storage and power management system (PMS), where trees can be linked and form part of a local grid, or feed into the main grid, essential to optimise an increasingly electrified future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first SolarBotanic Trees will become available in early 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SolarBotanic Trees are the brainchild of business executive, Harry Corrigan, Founder and Executive Chairman.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
