Think Outside the Box: Decentralized Power & Vacation Fun!

Imagine living in balance with nature, not opposed to it.  Imagine having an asset you can rent out on Airbnb so you can gain wealth from the share economy. That's the idea behind Solar Station. We are changing the economics of hospitality and renewable energy to empower you!

​Solar Station can be your hotel room in nature.  Or  you can use it as a studio space to teach and run workshops. At 200 square feet it doesn't need building permits for seasonal use. 1.9 kilowatts of power production, big windows and lots of fine architectural details complete the package.

The steel skin helps ground unwanted electromagnetic frequencies from cell towers to keep you healthy and the interior acoustics are amazing!
