Built On a Mission,
Powering the Future.
Driven by Purpose. Built for Impact.
After the devastating 2010 earthquake in Haiti, humanitarian Michelle Lacourciere founded Sirona Cares with a single mission: to bring light and power to communities left in total darkness. Working alongside Michelle, our team helped develop a portable solar solution designed for remote villages with no access to electricity.
The system used solar to change generators for portable power packs, which residents could bring home to provide lighting and charge mobile phones, restoring safety, communication, and dignity. These power packs, called TiSOLEY (translation: Little Sun), replaced toxic kerosene lamps, which produce soot and fumes equivalent to smoking 40 cigarettes a day for every person in the home.
Each solar, placed centrally in a village, could charge up to 100 portable battery packs. Each pack could light a home and charge phones for 5 to 7 days before needing to be recharged.
Powering 100 homes for just $6 a month, roughly what a Haitian family typically spent on kerosene, candles and batteries. See video below where we provided light for 3,000 Haitian homes in 4 days just in time for Christmas.
Michelle was honored with the prestigious Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Award, part of the Jefferson Awards, for founding Sirona Cares and leading transformative energy initiatives in Haiti.
The Sirona Impact Assessment Report reveals how solar power changed lives in the rural Haitian villages boosting health, education, safety, and economic opportunities, while cutting dependence on polluting fuels and demonstrating that solar energy works in low-income communities.

This unit was displayed at Ft McNair in DC with the "TIDES" organization, demonstrated at the Pentagon for the Joint Chiefs of Staff before being recognized for its innovation and impact at the NECA (National Electrical Contractors Association) Showstopper Award in 2013 at the Washington, D.C. convention.
But We Didn’t Stop There.
Next we designed Sun Commander® Road, a more robust, state of the art, high-capacity mobile microgrid designed to meet the energy needs of various industries. When deployed, the Sun Commander® Road spans approximately 3,000 square feet with its advanced solar panels, capable of producing an average of a half a million watts of energy per day. This energy output can vary depending on the deployment location and sun exposure, with the potential for higher generation in optimal conditions.
The energy generated by the Sun Commander® is stored in high-capacity batteries, ensuring a continuous and reliable power supply 24/7, 365 days a year.
Transportable in the US and Canada meeting all DOT requirements in a custom 53-foot trailer, the Sun Commander® Road can be easily towed to its destination by an electric semi-truck, which can be powered by the unit itself during transit. This feature highlights the Sun Commander Road's® commitment to eco-friendly operation, requiring no fossil fuels and positioning it as a transformative solution in mobile power generation.
The Sun Commander® Road units are not only capable of generating and storing renewable energy but are also able to be equipped to provide reliable level 3 electric vehicle (EV) charging solutions. This feature makes them invaluable for supporting electric vehicles in various settings, from emergency deployments to large public events.
