Boston, Massachusetts--(Newsfile Corp. - March 4, 2025) - SinglePoint Inc (OTC Pink: SING) subsidiary Boston Solar is excited to partner with Active Surfaces to test its cutting-edge solar technology, conducting mock installations at its Woburn, MA warehouse. The primary objective of this collaboration is to assess installation efficiency and gather feedback from experienced solar installers to further enhance the product's durability and ease of installation.

"As a fellow Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) alumnus, it's especially rewarding to support Active Surfaces in their groundbreaking innovations within the solar industry," said Mike Morlino, President of Boston Solar. "I believe this technology represents the next major advancement for the solar industry, and its potential to reduce costs for both installers and customers is truly exciting."

Installers see improved margins through reduced labor costs. During the mock installation, the team installed 2 kW of capacity in a matter of minutes. At this pace, hundreds of kilowatts of rooftop solar could be deployed in under a week-cutting installation time significantly compared to traditional solar. Additionally, commercial installations often come with added expenses that are passed on to customers, such as the cost of renting cranes to lift pallets of solar panels and equipment onto rooftops. Active Surfaces' ultra-light panels can be carried up a ladder, eliminating costly equipment rentals like cranes, further driving down installation costs.

"At Active Surfaces, we're not just innovating in the lab-we're putting our technology in the hands of real-world experts. Partnering with Boston Solar, a trusted local solar developer, gives us invaluable insights from an experienced team that understands what it takes to deploy solar at scale. Their expertise helps us refine our product to make installations faster, easier, and more cost-effective. This collaboration is a critical step in scaling next-gen flexible solar for widespread adoption." - Shiv Bhakta, CEO & Co-Founder, Active Surfaces

Active Surfaces offers a thin, ultra-light, and flexible solar solution designed to be installed on virtually any surface. This innovation seamlessly integrates solar energy into everyday environments, unlocking new solar deployment opportunities in homes, schools, and commercial buildings.
