About Etile Madum tas-Saqaf Fotovoltajku

Etile huwa madum tas-saqaf tal-metall fotovoltajku ddisinjat għall-użu fuq ħafna tipi ta' bini. Kull modulu huwa bbażat fuq madum tas-saqaf tradizzjonali tal-azzar galvanizzat u jġorr ħames pannelli mikro fotovoltajċi li jiġġeneraw l-elettriku. Il-moduli jkejlu 1200 b'360 b'30 millimetru u jitgħaqqdu flimkien bħal madum tas-saqaf ordinarju, bil-konnessjonijiet tal-kejbils moħbija taħt il-kisi tas-saqaf. Il-linja tal-enerġija hija konnessa mal-grid tal-elettriku tal-bini. Il-pannell tal-azzar jista' jiġi separat fi tmiem il-ħajja tal-prodott. Etile iżid il-ġenerazzjoni tal-enerġija mingħajr ma jbiddel l-istruttura tas-saqaf.

Unique Properties: Electrotile is going to offer photovoltaic steel tiles together with the rest of PV equipment and installation service unlike current suppliers of roof integrated PV. The modular, easy-to-use product allows it to be delivered to almost any type of building.
Dimensions & Packaging: 1200mm x 360mm x 30mm
Tags: Bipv, Photovoltaic, Solar, Solar roof, Green Energy, Architecture
Production Technology: the design of the etile is based on metal roof tiles, a traditional solution based on galvanized steel has created an easily available product. Each individual module has 5 micro photovoltaic panels that generate energy. The steel panel can be easily separated, which is extremely important for the product life cycle.
Design Challenge: Our company has been collecting experience in photovoltaics by installing panels on roofs. Most of the insides came from our customers who complained about the poor aesthetics and the mismatch of the size of the panels to the roof. The design challenge was available solutions that would be quick to install, available cheap and aesthetically.
Research: the roofing sheet project was a research and development project during which many tests were carried out. During the design process, we were testing various panel sizes, material connectrions and overal look of product on the building.
Inspiration: Traditional photovoltaic panels often look unsightly on the building, their large size does not allow for an exact fit to the roof body. We wanted to propose a solution which would look good on the building and not stand out from traditional roof tiles.
Project Duration: the project was developed in Warsaw. Conceptual work lasted from september 2016. After many prototypes and tests, the project was finally implemented in January 2020.
Operation Flow: The modules are connected together in the same way as ordinary roof tiles. The only element distinguishing Etile are cable connections, which are hidden under the roof sheathing. As in the case of a solar installation, the power line is connected to the home power grid.
