SHIP
Program
Join dcbel's Smart Home Integration Partner (SHIP) program and focus on what you're great at: installs.
Get a steady pipeline of qualified customers and a partner backing every project from kickoff to post-install, and we’ll handle the rest; demand gen, sales, training, and support.
Why partner with us
The home energy market is shifting. Homeowners want integrated systems that manage multiple power sources under one roof.
With the Ara, dcbel is leading that shift with a rigorously tested product that unifies solar, storage, and EV bidirectional charging; working with us puts you at the forefront of a bold new frontier.
Ready work
We provide the excited new customers, you keep full installation and commissioning revenue on each job, with none of the cost of sourcing, selling, or financing.
Bigger returns
Ara doubles as a solar inverter, so every install can expand with the needs of the homeowner, making you their long-term partner as their home evolves.
Easy service
Service work pays well, but it usually drags along the overhead of monitoring systems and chasing follow-ups. With dcbel, that's gone. We monitor installed systems, pinging you only when needed.
Stronger brand
Redefine how customers see you. As an energy infrastructure provider backed by the only fully certified platform of its kind, you occupy a tier few can reach, where trust runs deeper and growth holds steady.
What we take care of
Demand
We bring customers to you, ensuring each is the right fit for Ara, the Home Energy Station from dcbel®.
Once qualified, customers are assigned directly to you.
Sales
We manage all Ara sales and invoicing, so you don’t need to sell or negotiate pricing with customers.
Training
We train and certify your crew on installation, safety, and the standards for exceptional installations, every time.
Support
