Solar3D's Reno Office to Host Open House Luncheon at Builders Association of Northern Nevada

SANTA BARBARA, CA--(Marketwired - April 13, 2015) - Solar3D, Inc. (NASDAQ: SLTD), a leading provider of solar power solutions and the developer of a proprietary high efficiency solar cell, today announced that its SUNworks division will host an Open House Luncheon at the Builders Association of Northern Nevada (BANN) on Thursday, April 16.

The lunch, held at BANN's headquarters at 5484 Reno Corporate in downtown Reno, is designed to provide resident and commercial property owners with comprehensive information on how solar may benefit their bottom line. Local SUNworks personnel will outline multiple key variables such as leasing vs. owning, cost savings, tax credits, and increased efficiencies associated with solar.

SUNworks recently expanded into Nevada, widely considered one of the fastest growing solar markets in the country. In 2014, Nevada added the third most new solar capacity, finishing first in the Southwest, according to the U.S. Solar Market Insight Report 2014, published by the Solar Energy industries Association (SEIA). Solar jobs in the state also doubled last year, placing it atop all states in solar employment per capita.

"The Nevada solar market is one that is generally regarded not only for its explosive growth, but its vast upside," said Jim Nelson, CEO of Solar3D. "Our commitment to customer service is centered upon the belief that educating local individuals on solar capabilities is more important than merely trying to complete a sale. By maintaining our reputation as a strategic partner, we will continue to generate organic referrals, resulting in increased revenue for the Company."

"This luncheon will be beneficial for a variety of reasons, most importantly -- making SUNworks synonymous with solar expansion throughout Reno and the rest of Nevada," said Abe Emard, CEO of SUNworks. "The SUNworks entrance to the market, especially within Reno, is expected to provide homeowners and businesses with ample resources and knowledge regarding solar implementation, establishing SUNworks as a 'go-to' brand within the region."
