Coolerado Makes Solar Powered Air Conditioning a Reality

February 26, 2009

Video Guides Solar Contractors in Boosting Solar Power Generation LAS VEGAS and DENVER - (BUSINESS WIRE) - Coolerado Corporation today announced that it has revealed its revolutionary design for solar powered air conditioning systems to the general public through an online video that documents the unique system at http://www.coolerado.com/?page_id=111. Targeting solar contractors, the video demonstrates the simplicity of simultaneously cooling air, while boosting solar power generation. Using computer animation, the video illustrates how to incorporate the affordable system into different commercial and residential building types. Coolerado is exhibiting its solar powered air conditioning systems this week at RETECH 2009, running February 25-27 at the Las Vegas Convention Center, in Hall N1, booth #510. “Coolerado chose to disclose the design so that wide scale deployment of the systems can occur,” said Rick Gillan, executive vice president of Coolerado. “We could have limited availability through exclusive licenses, but have chosen a broader approach that allows us to focus on our core air conditioning business.” Any solar contractor can work with air conditioning installers in the Coolerado distribution network to pair the air conditioner with a solar photovoltaic (PV) system. Only a few PV panels are needed to power Coolerado air conditioners, so most systems have plenty of excess power available for other electric devices. The mobile demonstrator the company shows in the video is set up to display real time, side-by-side comparisons of the added power generation created by the system. “The system definitively shows how power production is increased by more than 15 percent by employing the innovative approach. Industry experts who have seen the system are also amazed at the tiny amount of power being drawn by the air conditioner,” Gillan said. There is significant world wide demand for affordable off-grid and grid tied solar powered air conditioners, and Coolerado’s system works with either. The off-grid system documented in the video uses a Coolerado air conditioner capable of cooling 3,000 square feet of space with only 600 watts of power, so only four PV panels are needed to power it. About Coolerado Corporation Coolerado Corporation develops, manufactures and sells innovative air conditioning systems that use one tenth of the energy required by the most efficient conventional systems. Coolerado air conditioners are green, using no chemical refrigerants, and reduce greenhouse gases tenfold compared to traditional systems. Coolerado also creates a healthier, more comfortable, living environment by providing continuous fresh air as an integral part of the cooling process. For more information, visit www.Coolerado.com.
