Outer Spaces to Introduce the Innovative OS1 Solar Pavilion at RE+ 2026
Introduction to the OS1 Pavilion
Outer Spaces, a visionary company aiming to revolutionize home energy management and architectural design, proudly announces the unveiling of its OS1 solar pavilion and battery deck. This innovative product will be shown to the public for the first time at the upcoming RE+ 2026, which will take place at the Las Vegas Convention Center from November 16 to 19. Visitors to Booth W17153 will have the opportunity to explore the complete energy system, including the solar roof, under-deck battery storage, and the advanced electrical wall designed for power conversion and distribution.
What is the OS1 System?
The OS1 system blends outdoor living with solar energy generation and battery storage capabilities. The pavilion features integrated solar panels within its roof, allowing homeowners to harness solar energy without the need for modifications to the main structure of their house. Beneath the pavilion's deck, the OS1 Horizon BladePack™ battery modules are discreetly housed, freeing the surface area for various uses, including furniture and appliances. Key components like the hybrid inverter and distribution equipment are neatly located within an integrated electrical wall.
With a rated power output of up to 11.4 kVA, the OS1 is designed to support large motor loads and can serve as a backup power source for the entire house during outages. This includes essential systems such as air conditioning and heating, depending on the battery's configuration and connected loads. Homeowners are equipped to manage their energy systems via a user-friendly app or web portal, which features various operational modes, including Self-Power, Time of Use, and Backup Standby, ensuring they are prepared for potential virtual power plant (VPP) participation.
Dimensions and Modularity
The OS1 system is available in two distinct sizes: a compact 12x12 ft version that delivers approximately 2.5 kW of solar energy, and a larger 12x24 ft version generating about 5 kW. Importantly, its battery storage is modular; each OS1 Horizon BladePack™ module provides 7.83 kWh of storage, with the system scalable from one to eight modules, potentially offering a maximum of 62.64 kWh.
In a statement, Jiake Liu, Co-Founder and CEO of Outer Spaces, expressed, "Most home batteries are fixed to a garage wall or situated beside the house on a concrete pad. We've developed a revolutionary option that not only generates and stores energy but also enriches livable space while enhancing the aesthetics of a home. From the outset, we designed OS1 around the battery, integrating features for cooling, waterproofing, and wiring directly into the frame. Its modular design allows for easy assembly on-site, complemented by a simple connection to the home by a licensed electrician."
Partnerships and Future Availability
As Outer Spaces prepares for its debut at RE+, the team is eager to connect with installers and builders to establish initial partnerships in Southern California and beyond for 2027. The company has attracted significant attention following its launch in October with $8 million in pre-seed funding, backed by notable investors including Upfront Ventures, along with Unlock Venture Partners, Mucker Capital, and Genius Ventures.
OS1 is set to reach the market in 2027, available through online channels, installers, builders, and developers. While pricing details will be disclosed in early 2027, the anticipation surrounding this innovative product in the residential energy sector is palpable.
Conclusion
Outer Spaces envisions a future where every outdoor space becomes a powerhouse for enhanced living within residential environments. The OS1 aims to define a new category within outdoor living, creatively combining solar energy generation and battery storage while providing versatile uses that cater to everyday activities such as gathering, working, or recharging outdoors. As the world trends toward more sustainable living, the OS1 stands to make notable contributions to the housing industry, all while maintaining a commitment to reducing installation complexity compared to traditional outdoor setups.
