Federal and state organisations can now purchase PairTree at the US government’s best authorised prices.

American made PairTree solar powered EV chargers combine safe, UL listed battery storage with bifacial solar panels. This means increased energy yields and lower maintenance costs without clunky tracker mechanisms and moving parts. Paired Power says PairTree delivers the most reliable microgrid EV charging system available, day or night.

PairTrees are ideal microgrid power sources because they’re quick-to-deploy, 100% sustainable, fully resilient, and deliver consistent, air-gapped EV charging at zero cost for delivered energy. Additionally, they can withstand both cyber threats and adverse weather conditions. The system is designed for wind speeds of up to 130 mph and 40 PSF snow loads. The PairTree installation draws its sustainable power from the sun but can also be connected to the grid to generate additional power on site.

Each PairTree combines a 4.6kW solar array with a battery energy storage system (BESS) and one or two Level 2 EV chargers. The charger’s footprint occupies a standard 9 by 18-foot parking space; multiple PairTrees can be installed side by side in a cascaded configuration to provide higher power to more EV chargers.

"Whether it’s a combination of solar and grid power for commercial or government fleets, or purely off-grid energy for military base customers in remote locations, Paired Power delivers on its promise to provide users with clean, resilient power and a great, consistent customer experience,” said Tom McCalmont, cofounder and CEO of Paired Power.
