PI Energy and Gofor Industries Announces Pilot Agreement

Ottawa-based leading sustainable delivery company Gofor Industries has entered into an agreement with PI Energy in a bid to further strengthen its electric delivery vehicles and services. PI Energy has pioneered a novel and proprietary technology that makes it possible to install solar on almost any surface.

PI Energy’s Pilot Deployment Program is the first phase of the company’s commercialization of its next-generation photovoltaic (PV) cell technology. 

“We are thrilled to partner with Gofor, which is leading a better and cleaner way of providing sustainable delivery services,” said Phil Layton, CEO, PI Energy. “The company’s participation in PI Energy’s Pilot Deployment Program will advance our collective goals for improving the performance and energy efficiency of EVs by providing on-board power generation that is lightweight, non-toxic, flexible, and easy to wrap on most vehicles.”

Gofor’s participation in PI Energy’s Pilot Deployment Program will allow the renewable delivery company to have access to PI Energy’s revolutionary module technology, which is designed to be wrapped onto electric vehicles so that EVs can be charged by sunlight.

Serving more than 120 metropolitan areas in the US and Canada, Gofor is a market leader in sustainable logistics, combining customer-focused delivery services and electric vehicle fleets. 

“We believe PI Energy’s technology can provide new ways of improving our delivery performance for our customers, which makes our business even more sustainable and efficient, while also lowering the total cost of ownership for EVs,” said Ian Gardner, CEO, Gofor. “Charging electric vehicles with surface integrated solar PV allows us to drive further and cleaner while reducing the necessity and frequency of having to recharge the EV while it's on route doing a delivery.”
