ROSEVILLE, Calif., Oct. 07, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sunworks, Inc. (NASDAQ: SUNW) (“Sunworks”), a provider of solar power solutions for agriculture, commercial and industrial (“ACI”), public works and residential markets, today announced that the company signed
New projects awarded in the third quarter include
Chuck Cargile, Chairman of the Board of Sunworks said, “Much of our ACI sales activity has been on-hold since March 2020 as new and existing customers faced challenges and uncertainty caused by COVID-19. During the third quarter, our team worked diligently, encouraging customers to finalize their decision to invest in solar and take advantage of the various incentives currently offered. The most notable volume of third quarter sales were booked in the last week of September, and we are optimistic this momentum will continue into the fourth quarter as we signed two more large projects in the first week of October.”
“The increased sales activity positions us well for 2021 and demonstrates the continued demand for our solar solutions, particularly among agriculture and commercial customers,” Cargile continued. “This momentum is important as we advance our efforts to finalize the previously announced business combination with The Peck Company (NASDAQ: PECK), as detailed in the preliminary joint proxy statement/prospectus, filed by The Peck Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 1, 2020. We believe the transaction with Peck will allow us to leverage combined synergies to create a larger solar solutions provider with greater geographical reach and enhanced financial resources which will benefit our partners, customers and shareholders.”
