Aspen, CO – December 16, 2024 – Colorado-based Skyhook Solar announces the launch of a

new D6 Solar Station at the Aspen Community School. Skyhook’s state-of-the-art

solar-powered electric vehicle (EV) charging solution, developed in collaboration with

Toronto-based SWTCH Energy and global innovator LG Electronics, will enhance the school’s

EV charging capacity and demonstrate the critical role solar energy can play in charging EVs at

multi-unit dwellings and workplaces.


While Skyhook’s headquarters and assembly plant are now located in Grand Junction,

Colorado, Skyhook has deep roots in Woody Creek. A Skyhook Solar Station has provided EV

charging via a single port for nearly four years at the Aspen Community School. With the

replacement of that Skyhook prototype with a new D6 Solar Station, built around SWTCH’s

advanced software and LG’s award-winning EV charger technology, EV drivers on the school

staff will be able to charge two electric vehicles simultaneously and replenish commute

mileage day after day.


“This project represents a substantial upgrade—and it's a testament to Skyhook’s commitment

to sustainability and innovation,” said Daniel Delano, CEO of Skyhook Solar. “With LG’s

cutting-edge charging hardware and the software of SWTCH integrated with ours, we’re

laying the groundwork for cleaner, more resilient EV charging infrastructure to serve EV drivers

who cannot charge at home.”


A Holiday Present to the Future

As the Aspen community gathers to celebrate the holidays, it is Skyhook’s hope that this new

Solar Station serves also as a reminder that the technologies to ensure a cleaner, brighter

future exist. “We must all do what we can to phase out the use of fossil fuels by electrifying

transportation and by every means possible,” said Delano.

According to recent data provided by SWTCH Energy, approximately 30% of households in the

United States and 40% of households in Canada lack access to home EV charging. This

underscores the importance of expanding public and workplace charging infrastructure to

ensure the widespread adoption of electric vehicles and support the transition to a more

sustainable future.


The new Skyhook Solar Station features advanced solar and battery technology, enabling EVs

to be charged seamlessly and sustainably at variable Level X ™ speeds . Equipped with LG's

Level 2 EV chargers, the Skyhook Solar Station offers a resilient and efficient charging solution.

With SWTCH-integrated software, smart charge management enables optimal energy use and

a smooth charging experience for users.


Industry veteran Dennis Carter, LG Electronics USA’s head of EV charger sales, called the

collaboration with Skyhook and SWTCH in Colorado “a great opportunity to demonstrate how

sustainable solutions can enhance community spaces and workplaces.”
