Q1 2019 Update

So far 2019 has shown a lot of promise!

In February, we attended and exhibited at the Spokane Ag Expo in Spokane, WA. We saw a lot of interest from attendees for our xCOLD refrigeration system. Some of the use-cases brought up by attendees included off-grid refrigeration for food, cooling for farm workers on hot days, storing meat while hunting, and disaster relief cold storage for medicine. With this crowd only being a small segment of our potential market, it showed to us that our solution is viable and can solve numerous problems around the world!

In addition to talking about SolarX Works at the show, we also brought along the xCOLD with a small tent to demo the concept for those that attended. This was very well received. People enjoyed standing in the tent and it was cold! We were able to bring the tent temperature down to 31 F in only a handful of minutes!

Since the show, we have had multiple conversations on the topic of field testing the xCOLD unit later this year. There are multiple opportunities to do this in the works—both here in the U.S. as well as abroad. The goal with this would be to further prove our concept’s viability as well as collect data to further improve our design.

Things feel like they are moving fast and we are excited to see further progress in Q2 2019. Check back here for future updates and keep an eye on our social media for other SXW news!
