A remarkable event took place on the grounds of Elma Electronic, a Swiss electronics firm based in Lawrenceville, GA. SolarButterfly, a pioneering solar-powered caravan conceived at Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts, Switzerland, graced the occasion during its global expedition. This eco-friendly caravan, pulled by a Tesla vehicle, embarks on a worldwide journey to underscore the significance of sustainable initiatives.

Distinguished by its foldable solar wings adorned with cutting-edge solar panels, SolarButterfly can recharge the Tesla for approximately 150 miles in an average span of 7 hours. The caravan’s exterior showcases innovation through its utilization of recycled ocean-sourced plastic materials.

The event also provided a platform for insightful conversations on forward-looking and sustainable energy sources, particularly solar power. Local experts from the fields of sustainability and solar energy delivered succinct talks, shedding light on Switzerland’s recent strides towards achieving net-zero emissions following a national referendum.

The event, hosted by Elma Electronic, offered attendees the chance to engage meaningfully. With fully charged batteries, SolarButterfly has continued its expedition with its next destination being The Energy Expo in Miami (August 23-24, 2023).

Sustainable practices and Switzerland’s ambitious goals merged seamlessly during this event, creating a meaningful dialogue on a greener future.
