Ascent Solar Technologies, a developer and manufacturer of state-of-the-art, flexible thin-film photovoltaic modules integrated into the company's EnerPlex series of consumer products, announced today the company's partnership with the consumer electronics retailer Micro Center.
Micro Center operates 25 large computer and consumer electronics stores in major markets coast-to-coast in the U.S. Catering to a technology focused customer base, Micro Center is an excellent partner to help EnerPlex reach an affluent and informed segment of consumers.
Richard Hashim, General Manager of EnerPlex, said, "The expansion of our direct retail presence into the Midwest is another important step in the growth of the EnerPlex brand. Our partnership with Micro Center, in addition to our other retail and distribution partners as well as the EnerPlex kiosks, will bring more consumers in contact with our revolutionary products every day in retail locations where they can touch, feel and interact with our revolutionary solar and battery power technology.
Micro Center is excited to let our customers utilize EnerPlexs innovative thin-film solar technology, which integrates solar into consumer electronics products from the Surfr solar integrated phone cases, to the full EnerPlex family of battery products and solar chargers, said Kevin L. Jones, Micro Center vice president for merchandising. EnerPlexs reputation for ground-breaking solar and battery products is an ideal match with Micro Centers reputation for providing the most satisfying shopping environment for the latest technology.
