Three for Three: Pila Wins IDEA, Red Dot, and iF Design Awards

Pila Energy

Three for three. πŸ†πŸ†πŸ†

Pila has now been recognized by three of the world's leading design awards: IDEA, Red Dot, and iF.

We're pretty proud of that.

But for us, good design was never just about making a battery look good.

Home energy hardware should feel at home

Most home energy hardware was designed to live somewhere out of sight, in the garage, on a wall, or tucked away in a utility closet.

Pila is different – it lives where you live. Next to your fridge. Under your desk. Beside your TV. Wherever you want reliable backup power.

That meant designing something that didn't just work in those spaces. It had to belong in them. Pila's compact form can sit horizontally, stand vertically, or mount to a wall, while keeping the information and controls you need right up front.

That approach has now been recognized by:
- iF Design Award
- Red Dot Design Award
- International Design Excellence Awards (IDEA)

Red Dot's jury specifically recognized Pila's materials, build quality, and timeless aesthetic, while IDEA recognized the design in its 2026 awards.Β 

Huge credit to our hardware team and our partners at Bould Design for bringing the vision to life.

Three awards. One very proud team. ⚑️
