Paired Power Secures Patent for PairTree™ Solar-Integrated EV Charger System
CAMPBELL, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Paired Power, a leading manufacturer of solar-powered electric vehicle (EV) charging systems, announced the award of U.S. Patent No. 12,375,024 for its innovative PairTree™ solar canopy solution. The patent, titled 'Solar canopy systems and methods,' formally recognizes Paired Power's proprietary approach to solar canopy installation, significantly expanding the deployment speed and accessibility of electric vehicle charging in situations with limited or no grid power. This marks the company's fourth patent since 2016, reinforcing its position as the innovator in solar powered EV charging. The newly patented technology covers a unique method for raising solar panels above a foundation using an integrated lift mechanism. Unlike conventional canopy installations that require elevated work, scaffolding, or external lifts, the PairTree™ system allows panels to be safely assembled at ground level before being elevated into place. This streamlined approach reduces installation time, labor costs, and safety risks, making deployment of EV charging infrastructure faster with fewer approval bottlenecks in a wider range of environments. "Securing this patent for PairTree is a monumental achievement for Paired Power," said Tom McCalmont, CEO of Paired Power. 'It embodies our commitment to making sustainable energy solutions more accessible, efficient, and deployable for everyone, everywhere. The ability to rapidly install solar canopies with minimal effort will accelerate the adoption of electric vehicles by providing charging options in previously underserved locations." PairTree reduces installation time from weeks to hours, enabling rapid deployment with immediate functionality and minimal site disruptions. Unlike traditional EV chargers that require trenching and major construction, PairTree preserves existing parking spaces and reduces or eliminates reliance on the grid during installation. Paired Power's signature combination of solar power and energy storage allows PairTree to create its own self-powered microgrid, further enhancing the solution's utility for remote, off-grid or utility-constrained locations. By generating and storing its own energy, the system also empowers operators to avoid costly demand charges often levied by utilities during peak energy use. Its modular, flexible design enables fast, cost-effective EV charger deployment where and when it's needed most. To learn more about the PairTree™ system, visit To delve further into the company's full suite of microgrid EV charging solutions, join Paired Power on Thursday, September 18, for a live webinar at 2:00pm EDT/11:00am PDT. About Paired Power: Trusted by cities, governments, and leading corporations, Paired Power manufactures solar-powered microgrid electric vehicle charger facilities (EVCF) that enable rapid deployment of new EV infrastructure without requiring expansions of existing grid capacity. Paired Power's flagship products are PairTree™, a microgrid solar powered EV charger that pairs a 4.6kW solar array with a 42.4 kWh Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) to provide Level 2 EV charging day or night, and PairFleet™, a larger microgrid designed to serve greater numbers of vehicle charging needs and can be customized based on a client's energy requirements.
