The City of Pittsfield has announced a partnership with local businesses, Berkshire Bank, Downtown Pittsfield, Inc., and the nonprofit green energy company, SolarFi, to bring SolarFi’s Privé pods to the community. Beginning today (Thursday, October 1st), SolarFi will be installing six of its premium Privé pods throughout the downtown Pittsfield area, to showcase their versatility and limitless uses.

The Park Square Privé pods will feature graphic panels curated by the Berkshire Museum featuring a collection of historical images of Pittsfield. The public is invited to explore the Privé pods at the park this weekend.

The Privé pods at Hotel on North will be used for additional outdoor seating for their restaurant, Eat on North, giving diners the option to enjoy meals privately and safety. Eat on North will be open 5 to 10 pm this week through Saturday, October 3rd. The Hotel on North Privé pods will also feature special graphic panels curated by the Berkshire Museum.

Privé pods provide a space for people to spend time outside, socialize, and dine, all within a socially distant and safe environment. The pods use solar power to provide users with lighting, air conditioning and heat, device charging stations, and Bluetooth-powered speakers. Privé offers a VIP experience, without compromising safety, technology, or comfort.

SolarFi is a Northeast-based nonprofit organization, and all of the pods are made in New York. SolarFi’s collaboration with Pittsfield is a special opportunity to experience the intersection of technology, green energy, and socially distanced commerce.

SolarFi is built on revolutionizing commerce, development and energy, allowing for entrepreneurship, efficiency and sustainability. For more information, visit www.solar-fi.com.
