Today, Paired Power, a leading U.S. solar microgrid electric vehicle charger manufacturer announces its installation of its PairTree EV charger for Sonoco (NYSE: SON), a leading global manufacturer of consumer, industrial, health care and protective packaging.

“We’re thrilled to provide the first offgrid electric vehicle solar charger to Sonoco, a world-class company with a strong track record of reducing emissions through recyclable material sourcing and countless initiatives,” said Tom McCalmont, Paired Power CEO. “Obtaining our PairTree to provide Sonoco’s staff with truly green electric car charging is an extension of their leadership’s commitment to the environment.”

PairTree can be used for both standalone solar power, or for microgrid renewable power with optional grid connection. PairTree is a U.S.-made solar canopy that combines battery storage with solar power to deliver day or night charging for electric vehicles.

As a fully resilient source of electricity, PairTree can also provide emergency backup power during grid outages, and help reduce users’ dependence on the grid. A popular alternative to traditional grid chargers that use “brown” power such as oil and takes years for permitting, PairTree has little permitting and its installation takes less than a day.

Built with durability in mind, PairTree is wind-rated up to 130 mph, which is ideal for regions with unpredictable weather patterns in regions such as South Carolina.

PairTree fits into a standard 9 x 18 foot parking space. It has no moving parts, and doesn’t require ongoing maintenance like problematic tracker solutions. PairTree offers both one or two Level 2 EV charging ports with the industry standard J1772 EV interface.

“Paired Power’s solar, offgrid car charging technology is the ideal solution to provide resilient and clean energy for our employees who drive electric cars to work,” said Elizabeth Rhue, Vice President of Sustainability at Sonoco. “From the simplicity and efficacy of the chargers’ functions to the sleek design, PairTree fits with the ethos of our company’s mission and dedication to sustainability.”
