After an exciting year in 2024, which saw the completion of key milestones and the initiation of further close collaborations with major leading vehicle manufacturers around the world, we are very excited to enter 2025. We aim to further expand the potential of VIPV (Vehicle Integrated Solar) beyond just providing the range to support the average European daily commute. We look forward to further collaborations with PC, MPV, LCV, and other types of projects to push the boundaries of clean energy in the Intelligent Data Vehicle (IDV) of the future. Lightyear, the thought leader in VIPV, will enable you to easily add a fully-fledged turnkey solution to any vehicle of your choice without hesitation. Stay tuned for more exciting news.

Yesterday we drove back to our roots with one of our solar technology research vehicles. Here at Technische Universiteit Eindhoven our adventure started back in 2013. More than a decade later we focus on offering the most cutting-edge, fully integrated solar charging systems for vehicles — providing range extension and a convenient driving experience. It was a short route from our solar system plant in Venray to TU/e, but a long one from TU/e to where we are today. #solar #VIPV #roots #research #grateful

Last week, we had the pleasure of attending the “Pitch & Meet” event organised by Stellantis Ventures Studio. It was an inspiring experience, and we truly appreciate the opportunity to participate. We look forward to collaborating further in shaping the future of advanced solar mobility and enhancing the appeal of tomorrow’s electric vehicles.

We are pleased to share that Lightyear has secured over €10 million in funding, our largest investment since its restart. This funding will enable us to expand our team of experts, our production capabilities in Venray (NL), and strengthen our position as a leading supplier of on-board solar systems for vehicles. Our innovative solar mobility technologies, including solar panels integrated into vehicle rooftops, present a transformative opportunity for the automotive industry by significantly extending driving time without the need for recharging. This investment ensures the continued development and scaling of these solutions, making them available to a broader range of international automotive companies. We would like to thank our investors for their trust and support in helping us advance toward our vision of sustainable transportation.
