Envision Solar Completes First Cadillac Solar Tree Structure

Solar-Tree
Envision Solar International, Inc., a sustainable infrastructure product designer and developer, announced installation of its new Cadillac Solar Tree array at Fremont Cadillac Buick GMC.

Energy produced by the Cadillac Solar Tree installation will go directly back to the dealership. This will reduce greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to the consumption of 2,500 gallons of gas, or 52 barrels of oil, on an annual basis.

The Cadillac Solar Tree will generate approximately 33,000 kWh of clean energy from a highly architecturally accretive platform. Installation of the array will lower the dealership’s environmental impact while improving the region’s built environment.

Equipped with integrated electric vehicle charging stations, the Solar Tree array can generate enough renewable energy to charge six electric vehicles each day. Envision Solar’s proprietary tracking system, EnvisionTrak, causes the array to follow the sun, capturing more of its energy and increasing electrical output by nearly 25 percent over typical fixed solar installations.

Within the next year, Cadillac will launch the ELR, the first luxury coupe with extended range electric technology.  The Cadillac Solar Tree is available to Cadillac dealers nationwide to support the ELR launch, and to assist in making dealership facilities more energy efficient.

“Fremont Cadillac’s solar tree installation is a great individual example of how we’re elevating and expanding in the areas of product, technology and customer experience,” said Chase Hawkins, Cadillac Vice President of Sales. “We’re the fastest growing full-line luxury brand in the U.S. today, including a 54 percent increase in the San Francisco area.”[wzslider height=”400″ lightbox=”true”]
