Solar power car guy is just waiting for clientele


Finally there’s a way to get approximately town without polluting or burning anything.

The gorgeous Earth Group, a Columbia Street “green” energy company, has set up Brooklyn’s first solar power array for the express intention of charging electric cars.

Too bad there aren’t a lot of electric cars to take advantage of the cost-free, pollution-free, guilt-free service.

I spend a lot of time thinking about the sun, said Lex Heslin, president of the company and, for now, the sole user of the fresh charging station. The sun is so distant away, yet it powers my car. It motionless amazes me.

Heslin owns an electric small Cooper. The charging station — which cost $25,000 and is fictitious out of two shipping containers — is only the 10th of its kind in the world.

sometime, such filling stations could be a model. Now, they’re a innovation.

Only a handful of electric cars are in use around the city, part of a tri-state area navy of just 300, Heslin said.

And, yes, the power is free, but it takes three hours to completely charge Heslin’s Mini Cooper so if you’re one of those people who feel that time is money, slo-mo refueling is almost certainly not for you.

Heslin willingly admits that the station, which is on Degraw Street between Van Brunt and Columbia streets, is only a pilot meant to get people talking. That’s why he’s offering the juice for gratis.
