RANCHO PALOS VERDES, Calif., April 13, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Powerstorm ESS (OTC: PSTO) ("Powerstorm" or the "Company") announced today the appointment of technical expert Dr. Zi-ang (John) Zhang to their Board of Advisors. Dr. Zhang is a professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Binghamton University in Binghamton, NY. He earned his Ph.D. in Electrical & Computer Engineering with a concentration in control and power systems from North Carolina State University. He also holds an M.S. degree from Purdue University and a B.S. degree from Beijing Institute of Technology. Having written extensively about his field of study, he is published in a variety of areas relating to engineering. Powerstorm is confident that his extensive experience and knowledge will prove valuable to advancing the company's mission to "change the world with a superior product that will enhance the quality of life for millions."
Powerstorm has also begun to explore a strategic partnership with the department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Binghamton wherein students in the program will be given the opportunity to supplement their education and gain hands on learning experience by performing research and development for Powerstorm. Students will be participating in engineering work, including but not limited to circuit design, communication channel set-up, and user interface development with the assistance and guidance of advisors, including Dr. Zhang.
"We have very talented students who are eager to work on real world problems," Dr. Zhang said, "This collaboration will provide them a unique opportunity within the University as well as prepare them for future careers. Based off of initial talks, I believe we [the department and Powerstorm] have a lot of synergy."
Powerstorm's CTO and Binghamton University Senior Dr. Shailesh Upreti shares in Dr Zhang's excitement. "I am so pleased that these two entities will be teaming up," said Upreti, "They are truly an excellent fit. While the University molds the brains of these bright students, the company will provide them with a platform on which to work and gain experience in their field, and as a result will receive access to their skills and their innovation."
Binghamton University continually conducts research concerning green energy and electronics. Powerstorm ESS has the capability to commercialize anything that the University is working on or is developing, helping to both bring the University's research to fruition as well as to bring more disruptive technology to the market. Powerstorm is committed to the betterment of its communities, including that of students. Through this partnership, as well as the establishment of its internship program, Powerstorm ESS hopes to improve the quality of education for engineering students by providing more hands-on, real world experience opportunities, but also to help prepare students for future careers as engineers in their preferred fields.
"This is one more piece in our continued efforts to develop and improve our line of best in class energy storage products that support the company's mission," said Mike Freni, Powerstorm Holdings CEO. "We want to be able to support not only the communities that we service with our products, but the communities that we are based in, through education, job and internship opportunities. We also feel that it is extremely important to become connected to the next generation of prominent engineers so that we can establish and secure our place as an industry leader and authority on the latest developments in the energy market."
While both the appointment of Dr. Zhang and the collaboration endeavor are exciting developments, they are just the beginning of the projected expansion, which Powerstorm expects to have in 2015.
