For the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company’s revenues were $2,642,207 compared to $1,033,438 for the same period in 2014. Revenues earned in the period were primarily earned from the production and delivery of the Company’s EV ARC™ products.

“The team is executing and our strategic plan is bearing fruit,” said Desmond Wheatley, CEO of Envision Solar. “It’s pretty simple – sales lead to more sales and higher volumes lead to increased efficiency and reduced costs. We are targeting rapid growth verticals with unique products, which deliver real value both in the US and overseas. I am confident that we will continue to experience growth and I believe that it will accelerate as we break new barriers such as our recently announced overseas delivery.”
