Adara Power Takes Tiny House Off-Grid in San Francisco

The Tiny House Movement has become a phenomenon across the United States in recent years. Driving this movement is the consumers' desire for greater financial freedom, cleaner energy, increased independence and a healthier, sustainable lifestyle. As homeowners transition from purchasing large, expensive American homes they are embracing the idea of purchasing tiny houses, which are under 500 square feet, often arranged in a community of like properties that support and engage a greater quality of life through simplicity, independence and resiliency.
 
Adara Power partnered with The Arc House - presented by Green Builder Media and Shelter Dynamics - this June to install an 8.6 kWh lithium-ion Adara Energy Storage System coupled with 10 solar panels in the factory-built 432 square foot residence that combines the economy and simplicity of tiny house living with cutting-edge building science. The installation ran off-grid in downtown San Francisco while displayed at the Pacific Coast Builder Conference from June 22-23, 2016. It will be displayed in future events, including Solar Power International from September 12-15 in Las Vegas.
 
"The unmet challenge in the tiny home movement is finding a place to put them. Once homeowners start working with governmental and utility companies, the concept of freedom can evaporate very quickly," stated Jim Gregory, CEO of Shelter Dynamics. "This is why we love the Adara Energy Storage System. With solar and energy storage, tiny houses can go almost anywhere. We plan on a long term partnership with Adara's incredible team. I could not recommend them highly enough."
 
Adara Power, a privately-held Silicon Valley company committed to providing safe, reliable, intelligent, and connected energy storage, is proud to partner with builders and installers involved in the space to help tiny house homeowners utilize clean and reliable energy storage.  The system is completely silent and maintenance free which makes the Adara-powered tiny house experience not only sustainable but far more enjoyable than generator-based approaches. Adara energy storage systems are available for both grid-tied and off-grid configurations and offer the greatest power available in the marketplace to support energy peak shifting and backup power.
 
The Adara Energy Storage System is an intelligent, stackable 8.6kWh lithium-ion battery system designed for safe, reliable, long lasting power management. It is designed, engineered, and manufactured by Adara Power based on their company's years of automotive lithium ion control systems engineering. Each system delivers more than 10 years of operation of dedicated peak shifting, back-up power, energy efficiency, as well as enables participation in emerging interactive energy exchanges. The Adara Energy Storage System is housed in an indoor/outdoor, floor or wall-mounted UL-rated enclosure.
