Sunseeker Energy Holding AG and Nations Roof Plan to Establish a U.S. Manufacturing Center

The solar energy company Sunseeker Energy Holding AG has entered into an expanded Memorandum of Understanding with its new strategic partner Nations Roof LLC. Further to their initial plan to cooperate on distribution and installation of Sunseeker solar units, the two parties plan to establish a manufacturing center located in the United States. The Sunseeker Energy - Nations Roof partnership gives Sunseeker access to the U.S. commercial and industrial solar market, working with a well established and highly respected partner, with an extensive national network.

Zurich, Switzerland (PRWEB) July 28, 2009 -- Sunseeker Energy Holding AG is a solar energy company committed to developing new generation solar and hybrid power technologies for sustainable energy use throughout the world. Sunseeker Energy has developed a new concentrated solar energy (CPV) unit that reduces the active solar panel area per megawatt.

With 18 branches and 600 employees Nations Roof is the ideal partner for Sunseeker Energy's nationwide U.S. program. The two companies have significant and complementary expertise, resources and leadership platforms that can be used to maximize the project outcomes.

The Joint Venture with Nations Roof to build a major manufacturing center will allow us to compete at the forefront of the American solar energy market.

"With 18 branches and 600 employees Nations Roof is the ideal partner for Sunseeker Energy's nationwide U.S. program. The two companies have significant and complementary expertise, resources and leadership platforms that can be used to maximize the project outcomes." Antony Howard, one of the founders and a Director of Sunseeker Energy Holding AG, goes on to explain, "The Joint Venture with Nations Roof to build a major manufacturing center will allow us to compete at the forefront of the American solar energy market."

Nations Roof was founded to give today's businesses a clear choice for trustworthy, cost-effective roofing. Nations Roof is the only top roofing contractor in the United States that delivers customers the unique combination of locally based installers and the strength and resources of a national company.

Sunseeker Energy's unique combination of performance efficiency and reduced active solar panel area required per megawatt, coupled with low production costs lead to a strategic cost advantage for over alternate solar energy solutions. The end result is an outstanding platform for long term alternative energy power providers across the globe. Here's a link to Sunseeker Energy's detailed information brochure.

Sunseeker Energy's solar collectors are infinitely flexible. They are designed with a range of package sizes in mind to fit differing customer needs from individual residential consumers to industrial scale roofing deployment and solar farms. The company has also been successful in designing and executing their concentrating photovoltaic (CPV) systems for deployment on a mass scale, such as those seen in commercial photovoltaic farms.

Sunseeker Energy's concentrator solar transducer systems are more powerful and energy efficient than conventional solar energy collectors. For example, flat panel and thin film products operate at efficiencies significantly lower than Sunseeker's CPV systems, with a typical figure being in the order of 15%. Sunseeker Energy's solar collectors are independently verified at efficiencies up to 39%.

These remarkable systems also track the sun both horizontally and vertically throughout the day, to assure maximum output as can be seen in this Video of a Sunseeker Energy CPV Demonstration System. Accurate tracking technology is critical to CPV technology. This two axis tracking system provides exceptionally high accuracy at very low cost. This unit currently produces in the order of 300 watts per square meter.

Sunseeker's solar collectors use common materials such as plastic and aluminum for the bulk of a system, and much less solar cell material so their concentrator systems are less susceptible to supply constraints of specialized materials such as photovoltaic cells. This makes Sunseeker Energy's technology highly scalable to large volumes of production.

Sunseeker's concentrators present exciting possibilities when deployed in large volume, including the promise of competing head-to-head with conventional power generation from oil, gas and coal. Sunseeker Energy is committed to meeting the energy challenges facing our world.
