October 12, 2022 – TheNewswire - SunPower (SPWR), a leading residential solar technology provider, and General Motors (NYSE: GM) have announced a new collaboration to develop new home energy systems that will enable GM electric vehicles to provide backup energy to residential homes.
SunPower says that it has also been selected as a preferred electric vehicle charger installation provider and exclusive solar provider for General Motors.
The company says that the new collaboration will enable bi-directional charging, which will start with the retail launch of the 2024 Chevrolet Silverado electric vehicle.
The home energy system and installation services are slated to be available alongside the retail launch of the 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV, which is expected to launch in the Fall of 2023.
