Solar Bus Kit to be Distributed by Hofmeister & Meincke, Our Organization
In an exciting development for the automotive industry, Hofmeincke, a long-standing Bremen-based company and a trusted partner for commercial vehicle workshops, vehicle manufacturers, and industry throughout Germany, has partnered with Sono Group N.V. to introduce the Solar Bus Kit in Germany and Austria.
Hofmeincke is part of the FRICKE Group, which is active in the international trade of spare parts, agricultural machinery, commercial vehicles, and garden technology in 27 countries at a total of 84 locations with over 3,700 full-time employees. This collaboration marks a significant step for Hofmeincke, expanding its portfolio into the realm of renewable energy solutions.
The Solar Bus Kit, a retrofit solution designed to reduce diesel consumption and lower CO2 emissions for public transportation buses, is now available through Hofmeincke. The kit includes lightweight, semi-flexible solar panels that integrate seamlessly onto bus roofs, optimised for common 12-meter bus models such as the Mercedes-Benz Citaro and MAN Lion's City.
Denis Azhar, Managing Director of the organisation producing the Solar Bus Kit, has expressed enthusiasm about collaborating with Hofmeincke. Both companies will be attending the InnoTrans 2024 and IAA Transportation 2024, international trade fairs for traffic technology and the transportation sector, to showcase and discuss the Solar Bus Kit.
Sono Group's disruptive solar technology can be integrated into various vehicle architectures, such as cars, buses, refrigerated vehicles, and recreational vehicles. The company's mission is to make every vehicle solar, aiming to extend range, reduce fuel costs, and decrease CO2 emissions, promoting climate-friendly mobility.
While the partnership and details about the Solar Bus Kit are still evolving, it is clear that this collaboration represents a step towards a more sustainable future for public transportation. Interested parties are invited to visit both companies at these exhibitions to learn more about the Solar Bus Kit and discuss potential collaborations.
