Arka Energy introduced PowerPatio, an addition to its lineup of lifestyle solar solutions. Building on its existing product, the PowerGazebo, the PowerPatio is a prefabricated structure that integrates glass-on-glass PV tiles to provide shading and produce solar power in residential applications. The PowerPatio comes in multiple sizes starting at 180 sq ft and up to 353 ft, scaling in PV production from 2.46 kWp to 5.04 kWp.

This system comes with a 25-year power warranty and is built with MS Steel, making it outdoor-rated structure that can withstand wind speeds up to 150 MPH and a snow load of 50 PSF. This ground mount solar solution comes with with its ready-to-assemble parts, and is compatible string, hybrid and micro-inverters.

“Both the PowerGazebo & PowerPatio are game changers for homeowners. Arka products seamlessly blend aesthetic form and function, offering a solar solution that’s both elegant and valuable,” said Bill Barrieau, CEO of Ion Solar Pros, a solar solutions provider and installer partner. “The PowerPatio provides Ion Solar Pros (ISP) with a unique solution that complements our existing product offerings. ISP has seen increased interest and sales since the announcement of the PowerGazebo & PowerPatio availability.”

The PowerPatio is available for pre-order and on display at RE+ 2023 (Booth #26118) for deliveries starting December 2023. The unit on display allows installers to view the product, get a demo of its design and permit platform available on ARKA 360 and visualize the product variants on the Spotlight AR/VR application (iOS & Android).

Our solutions offer incredible value to homeowners and aid our VIP installer partners’ efforts to address the unmet needs of customers.”
