Their first proposed product is the Pila-1 (see attached spec sheets), a hybrid (ie both Solar and Zinc powered) off-grid energy system designed to provide 7x24 electricity for populations who are not served by reliable electrical infrastructure (eg most of South Africa, Namibia, et al). Sari & Mark will visit the SF Bay Area next week, from May 11 to 16. They are very interested in meeting potential investors, energy professionals, and people who may be interested in such a (comparatively rare) example of a collaborative Israeli-Palestinian entrepreneurial high-tech venture. In addition to they would be glad to chat with locals about technology, start-ups, angels & VC, and about collaboration and initiatives that can bring Israelis and Palestinians together in an equal settings and have tangible outcomes. If anyone has any suggestions for them, or would like to introduce them to people who may potentially help them, please feel free to get in touch with me (email: ; phone/text: Thanks in advance. --Ron PS: Background info on the web: Zolair Energy homepage: http://zolair-energy.com/ Zolair video Links: https://vimeo.com/109210407 https://youtu.be/51zFgsdZ-Ds Article on Zolair: http://grist.org/climate-energ y/a /ay-to-g power-to-the-worlds-poor-without-making-climate-change-worse/ Sari previously interned at Takwin Labs, an
