Blue Sky Energy
, provider of off-grid solutions and Genasun, which specializes in solar charge controllers, announce a partnership to offer an extensive lineup of power electronics for the off-grid power and begin co-development of new off-grid products.
Through combining their product offerings, logistics management, and order processing, the Genasun-Blue Sky Energy partnership will streamline operations for distributors, dealers, and OEMs that serve off-grid power users with solar array sizes ranging from 5W to 1.6kW.
“Logistics can be a nightmare for distributors serving the off-grid community who have to deal with dozens of suppliers and thousands of products,” said Alex MeVay, Founder and CEO of Genasun. “The Genasun-Blue Sky Energy partnership will simplify sourcing for distributors as they now have a one-stop shop for all of their charge controller needs.”
“While power needs and technical requirements for off-grid loads vary widely, it is imperative that all off-grid products are reliable,” said John Vrahnos, Director, Global Sales & Marketing at Blue Sky Energy, Inc. “Genasun and Blue Sky Energy share rich histories in the off-grid space and a commitment to product durability. We’re excited to partner with Genasun because our product lines dovetail beautifully, which means distributors will have an easier time sourcing charge controllers for a wide variety of applications, including Recreational, Industrial, Street Lighting, Off-Grid, and Military. Genasun’s expertise in charging lithium batteries will allow us to provide excellent support to our own customers who are using advanced batteries.”
“We have a long history with both Blue Sky Energy and Genasun, so this partnership will definitely make life simpler for us,” said Paul Landino, General Manager at e Marine Systems. “We’ve distributed Blue Sky Energy charge controllers for over eight years, and we tested the Genasun controllers before they came to market. We like to offer a broad blanket of products to fit our customers’ needs and deliver the right solution for each customer. My job as a distributor will be a lot easier now that I can purchase and get support for all our charge controllers from one source.
“We are very excited to partner with Blue Sky Energy and offer off-grid customers a full lineup of robust and reliable controllers,” said MeVay. “Genasun has focused on efficiency and performance at extreme temperatures, while Blue Sky Energy has developed feature-rich products that give a great user experience – we’re looking forward to collaborating on developing off-grid products, combining the best from both companies to engineer products that are rugged, efficient, and easy to use.”
