Stellar Solar to Power Herman Cook Volkswagen in Encintas With 65 Kilowatt System

SAN DIEGO, Dec. 9, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Stellar Solar, one of San Diego's most experienced solar and battery storage installers since 1998, and winner of  the San Diego Union Tribune Readers Poll in the category of Best Solar Company again in 2021, has been selected by Herman Cook Volkswagen in Encinitas to install a 65kW solar system featuring 135 QCells 480 Watt panels. The system will produce enough power to completely offset their historical one year kilowatt consumption, or 104% of their historical annual electricity usage.

Besides powering the dealership, the strategic partnership with Stellar Solar will offer Cook VW customers who purchase electric vehicles, a full suite of clean energy solutions including solar, battery storage and EV connectivity to help power their cars with clean energy from the sun. The partnership is the first of its kind between an auto dealer and solar company in San Diego County and given the proliferation and widespread adoption of electric vehicles, it was a natural fit for both parties.

Herman Cook Volkswagen General Manager and co-owner Connor Cook had this to say about going solar and the strategic partnership with Stellar Solar: "First off we are thrilled to be making the move to solar. And to do it with a local company with such an established track record of success and expertise in solar, battery storage and electric vehicle connectivity was just a bonus. It was their tagline of Electrify Your Life that made forming a strategic partnership and offering their full suite of services to our customers a no-brainer. I'm excited to be on the forefront of this and contributing to the clean energy movement."

Kent Harle, co-founder and CEO of Stellar Solar had this to say about working with Herman Cook Volkswagen and the strategic partnership:  "First off, I'm thrilled to be working with such an iconic North County family run business. Cook VW's history is rich in Encinitas and their growth has reflected that of the area.  Going solar and offering our clean energy solutions to their customers is a perfect example of being on the cutting edge and offering what homeowners in the area are demanding. Besides solar, we have established ourselves as the go-to resource for battery storage and electric vehicle connectivity and with Cook VW's amazing line of electric vehicles, this is an exciting time for both of us."
