What are Sun Miles®?

Sun Miles® (Sun•Mīlz): Miles driven by an electric vehicle (EV) or plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) whose batteries have been charged using solar energy and/or using electricity from kWh credits amassed via solar offset generation. SolarChargedDriving.Com has coined the term Sun Miles® — miles driven by an electric vehicle (EV) or plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) whose batteries have been charged using solar energy and/or using electricity from kWh credits amassed via solar offset generation — as a way to promote the radical, and radically simple, synergy between solar power and EVs and PHEVs. This synergy has the potential to revolutionize driving and to transform the world into a greener, cleaner, better place. Our aim in creating the Sun Miles® concept is simple: To inspire as many people as possible to drive an EV or PHEV off of solar energy — most likely off of solar panels located on a home, garage, and/or, eventually, we hope, solar panels on solar carports in parking lots across America and around the world.
