Not a kilowatt of solar goes to waste.
Ara uses solar energy to power your home and top up your batteries. Any excess is sold to the grid — and when energy prices surge, Ara powers your home with stored solar instead.
More than a solar inverter. Way more.
Looking to add solar to your home? dcbel Ara has you covered.
It reduces your home energy costs by automating solar, storage, and smart EV charging. Using powerful processors, Ara calculates when to consume, store and even sell your energy in real time.
Fuel up with solar
With a direct connection from roof to road, Ara lets you tap into 20,000 solar-powered miles per year. The more it learns, the more you earn — no need for manual charge scheduling as it picks up on your weekly driving habits and your utility’s pricing structures.
Bidirectional charging is around the corner, and you’ll be ready to unlock EV energy and make money after sundown. When grid prices surge at dinnertime, cook with EV energy instead and save $1,300 per year. Or when the grid needs power, earn up to $3,200 per year by selling excess EV energy while it’s parked in the driveway.
Peak shaving, peak savings
Let Ara be your power broker in the world of energy incentives. Uncover the programs that are applicable to you, sign up directly through dcbel’s App Hub and let Ara manage participation based on your needs.
Make bank in the energy market
Solar panels, EVs and home batteries are DC by default – but legacy systems introduce inverters at every step to connect them to your AC-wired home. The more inverters in your system, the more energy losses you suffer.
Up to 30% of the power you generate can evaporate into thin air.
Eliminate redundant inverters
Solar shouldn’t stop powering your life when you need it most. When blackouts strike, you can continue to generate solar power for your home, store the excess in your home battery and charge your EV without interruption.
Protect your home from blackouts
Have a bidirectional EV? You can unlock 3-10 days’ worth of continuous blackout power.
Patching together EV chargers, bulky equipment kits and proprietary systems will just clutter your wall with devices that will soon be obsolete.
With its built-in solar inverter, universal EV connectors, support for bidirectional charging, and over-the-air updates, dcbel Ara is a fully next-gen device designed to provide value for years to come.

Solar charging with Ara nets you 20,000 miles of range per year.
Putting solar panels on your roof? That's smart. But typical inverters are not. They're passive, inefficient, unintegrated and aren't built for real-time energy arbitrage.
With Ara at the heart of your system, you'll enjoy all the benefits of solar, storage and smart EV charging while earning and saving more every day.
