Renewable Energy Solar Modules
San Diego-based Innergy Power Corporation was just acquired by Scottsdale-based Ecotality. Innergy will operate as a subsidiary of Ecotality.
Founded in 1989, Innergy had recently opened a manufacturing facility in Tijuana, Mexico.
Innergy is a market leader in integrating solar panel chargers with battery packs. One example is the Innergy thin pack which contains a solar module and a thin sealed-lead battery. The result is a self charging battery pack that provides power 24/7 for a wide range of civilian and military applications. Batteries charge during the day, and then power lamps or other electronics at night. This type of installation is especially popular when grid electricity is scarce or non existent. Communications gear for field teams, and rural lighting are examples.
As prices for solar panels decline, off-grid and co-generation will continue to gain popularity. Innergy sells their products direct-to-consumer via the Innergy web site
