The agreement ensures that purchasers of the Plugless Power system will have access to reliable home and commercial equipment installation.
Under the agreement, Evatran will offer Plugless Power systems with optional basic or standard home installation wrapped into the purchase price of the equipment; this full price may be included in the vehicle purchase or lease at the time of sale.
Sears installation network technicians will be trained and certified on the wireless charging systems and will work with Evatran to structure a comprehensive launch plan for aftermarket systems throughout 2012.
Sears will offer ongoing service and maintenance to Plugless Power owners, and will also offer commercial installation for electric vehicle fleet owners and managers.
Home Services at Sears Holdings senior vice president and president Stu Reed said the agreement between Sears and Evatran to support the installation and servicing of these stations.
Aftermarket systems will be available for installation starting in 2012 for Nissan Leaf and Chevrolet Volt models, the company said.
Evatran CFO Timothy Briggs said the agreement allows Evatran to deliver on the company’s vision of enabling electric vehicle adoption through the continued focus on making our customers’ lives easier.
