Sesame Solar Announces Distribution Partnership with Solarion, Expands Footprint in Indo-Pacific Region
Sesame Solar partners with Solarion to meet needs for renewable energy resources and clean water for disaster preparedness and response in Indonesia
Sesame Solar’s presence in Indonesia furthers its commitment to providing renewable energy and atmospheric water generation to Island Nations.
Jackson, MI – WEBWIRE – Tuesday, October 31, 2023
Sesame Solar, the company creating global climate-resilience solutions, announced today a multi-unit distribution partnership with Solarion, the leading renewable energy solutions provider in Indonesia. This partnership expands Sesame Solar’s presence in the Indo-Pacific region. It brings clean, renewable energy and safe drinking water for climate disaster preparedness to Indonesia.
Sesame Solar is the maker of the world’s first renewably-powered Mobile Nanogrid that is powered by solar and green hydrogen. The Nanogrids operate in a closed-loop system using sunshine, self-produced deionized water, and green hydrogen, and an optional wind turbine producing 3-20 kW of Clean Mobile Power, with total battery storage of 15-150 kWh that can self-generate Clean Mobile Power within 15 minutes of a disaster, providing resources such as reliable communications and medical hubs. Through the integration of atmospheric water generators, the Mobile Nanogrids can also generate clean drinking water from the air within minutes.
In regions such as Indonesia, this technology is essential in powering resilient communities that currently are in need of reliable infrastructure, power, and clean water.
“I’m honored to partner with Lasman and his outstanding team at Solarion to serve the needs of the world’s fourth most populous country. Indonesia’s residents are in the direct line of fire for extreme weather events, and many rural areas feel the devastating aftermath,” said Lauren Flanagan, CEO and co-founder of Sesame Solar. “On the heels of our partnership in the Philippines, we’re eager to continue extending our reach in the Indo-Pacific area.”
As Sesame Solar expands its presence in the Indo-Pacific region, local distribution partners allow the company to provide its tech to regions where it’s needed most. Indonesia is home to more than 278 million people and holds Southeast Asia’s largest economy. As the world’s largest archipelagic state made up of thousands of islands, it’s also highly vulnerable to extreme weather events. The country is home to many highly populated areas and remains an international hub; however, many rural communities in the region need help to gain access to resources such as reliable energy, and 18 million residents need help with access to clean water.
“Sesame Solar’s Mobile Nanogrids are ideally suited to fulfill the needs of Island Nations like Indonesia. We’re excited to bring this first-of-its-kind technology to provide essential resources to our government, military, industrial, and NGO customers, and to provide them with proactive and sustainable solutions that do not produce emissions,” said Lasman Citra, CEO of Solarion. “We look forward to continuing to service the sizable mobile power market in partnership with Sesame Solar without contributing to climate change.”
“We are taking a leap forward as we join forces with Solarian’s top technical and commercial team to introduce our Mobile Nangrids in Indonesia, and we’re committed to achieving mutual success in delivering the technology to those who need it,” said Namit Jhanwar, President Sesame Solar Pvt. Ltd.
“We’re thrilled to introduce these unprecedented resources to Indonesia,” said Paul Tunney, COO of Solarion. “This solution will help us to reach many people that we haven’t been able to before by bringing Sesame’s Mobile Nanogrids, equipped with battery storage, green hydrogen, and atmospheric water generation, to the forefront of vulnerable communities.”
