INNOVATIVE SOLAR ENERGY COMPANY, PHAT ENERGY, PREMIERES GROUNDBREAKING SOLAR PRODUCTS
AT DWELL ON DESIGN CONFERENCE 2009
Solar design innovator debuts cutting edge solar product lines
Los Angeles, Calif. - (June 23, 2009) – Phat Energy, the premier solar energy design and installation company, launches its groundbreaking product line: the Phatport™. With their official debut at the Dwell on Design Conference 2009 (booth # 925 and Dwell Outdoor), these flagship products represent the leading edge in dedicated-structure solar installation design. The Phatport™ line consists of two distinctive products. The Phatport™ 200, which features the Sanyo translucent bi-facial panel (the HIT Double), is a versatile, rainproof structure that can be used as a covered patio or carport with dozens of power producing skylights; and can be built to match any architectural style, from Spanish to modern. The Phatport™ 1000 is a striking and innovative suspended solar structure that uses a patented tetrahedron design. Aside from its lightness and speed of assembly, the Phatport 1000 is capable of spanning large distances at minimal cost and space requirement, with any choice of solar panel. Phat Energy anticipates that the Phatport™ line will provide new opportunities for practical and modern solar power deployment using open spaces.
"The Phatport™ lifts solar power into a front and center feature of home and commercial design,” says Phat Energy founder and General Manager Philippe Hartley. "To be widely accepted, solar energy needs to be freed from rooftops where it is currently trapped, and often hidden; it must find its way into new spaces.” Nick Tucker, Phat Energy’s Chief Designer notes, “we want to move solar power from a technology to an esthetic.”
Phat Energy is known for their out-of-the-box thinking about distributed energy. Phat Energy, which operates on the premise that solar electricity must prove itself on the basis of its economic competitiveness, regularly conducts seminars on how to pick “Winning Financial Strategies for Solar Electricity”. Based near Pasadena, Phat Energy counts an impressive number of JPL scientists among its customers. Founder Philippe Hartley appears as a panelist for Dwell on Design’s “Off the Grid” panel on Friday, June 26 from 2:15-3:10 pm, and will be available for interviews before and during the conference (www.dwellondesign.com).
