About Energola サイドシャッター

Energolaは、パーゴラ、バルコニー、大型ガラス面のために設計されたサイドシャッターです。各羽根にはマイクロ太陽光パネルが搭載されており、日除けとしての機能に加えて発電も行います。すべての羽根は回転可能で、日射と風への対策はリモコンで調整できます。可動システムは太陽エネルギーで駆動し、余剰電力は建物のエネルギーネットワークへ送ることができます。構造は押出成形アルミニウム形材を基本としており、リサイクルのために容易に分別できます。標準モジュールは幅1000mm、高さ2200mmで、要件に応じてサイズを調整できます。

Unique Properties
The presented side shutter is a multi-functional product dedicated to pergolas, balconies, and large glazed spaces. In addition to the sun protection function, energola also produces energy. Each individual wing has a micro photovoltaic panel. All panels rotate, so you can adjust the sun and wind protection. Mobile energy functions are powered by clean solar energy and production surplus can be sent to the building's energy network.
Dimensions & Packaging
The standard module has a width of 1000mm and a height of 2200mm, however, it can be scaled and adapted to the user's requirements.

Production Technology
The Energola design is based on extruded profiles. Solar panels are mounted on the main profile. This method of assembly allows to easily separate materials so that the product can be recycled.
Design Challenge
The biggest challenge of the project was to create a product that would retain its lightness despite the internal electronics and photovoltaic panels.
Research
The main research was to develop a wing rotation system that would be lightweight, compact and solar powered at the same time. The first tests were made on 3D printed models. The wing loads were tested many times, which allowed the development of aluminium profiles with the required parameters.
Inspiration
In modern construction, solar farms can be used practically anywhere, all you have to do is design a suitable solution. We were looking for solutions that use the sun to produce energy in a product that by definition protects against the sun.
Project Duration
the project was developed in Warsaw. Conceptual work lasted from september 2019. After many prototypes and tests, the project was finally implemented in January 2020.
Operation Flow
Energola is a moving product that adapts to current needs. Using the remote control, the user can control the tilt of the wings. Operation is simple and requires no additional power supply.
