About Energola Chitseko cha Mbali
Energola ndi chitseko cha mbali chopangidwa kuti chizigwiritsidwa ntchito pa mapergola, mabalcone, ndi malo akulu okhala ndi magalasi. Phiko lililonse limanyamula kapepala kakang'ono ka photovoltaic, choncho chitsekocho chimapereka mthunzi komanso chimapanga magetsi. Mapiko onse amazungulira, ndipo kutetezera ku dzuwa ndi mphepo kumatha kusinthidwa pogwiritsa ntchito chowongolera cha kutali (remote control). Njira yoyendetsera chitsekochi imayendetsedwa ndi mphamvu ya dzuwa, ndipo magetsi opitilira amatha kutumizidwa ku netiweki ya magetsi ya nyumbayo. Chomangira chake chimapangidwa kuchokera ku mapulofayilo a aluminium osungunuka (extruded aluminium profiles), omwe amatha kulekanitsidwa mosavuta pofuna kubwezeretsanso zinthu (recycling). Muyeso wokhazikika ndi wautali wa 1000 mm ndi wamtali wa 2200 mm, ndipo umatha kusinthidwa kukula kwake kutengera zosowa.

About the Mphoto ya Chitsulo ya A' Design Award
Energola Chitseko cha Mbali ndi mmodzi mwa opambana a Mphoto ya Chitsulo ya A' Design Award, kuzindikirika kolemekezeka komwe kumaperekedwa kwa mapangidwe abwino omwe amakwaniritsa zofunika za akatswiri ndi za makampani zomwe zimayembekezeka kuchokera ku zolengedwa zopangidwa bwino. Opambana a Chitsulo amaonetsa luso lalikulu, ukatswiri wapamwamba, kumvetsetsa kwa akatswiri ndi mphamvu yolenga ya opanga awo. Energola Chitseko cha Mbali akuyembekezeka kukhala cholengedwa choyamikiridwa kwambiri, chosirira ndi chokondedwa chomwe ndi chothandiza ndi chatsopano. Mapangidwe opambana Mphoto ya Chitsulo ya A' Design Award awa amaphatikiza machitidwe abwino kwambiri a makampani ndipo ali ndi makhalidwe a ukadaulo oyenerera olumikizidwa ndi chidziwitso ndi luso. Energola Chitseko cha Mbali amalemekezedwa chifukwa cha kusamala kwake ndipo anapangidwa kuti apereke kukonza kwa moyo kumene kumathandiza kusandutsa dziko kukhala malo abwino.

- 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.

- Solar panels, Photovoltaic, Facade Shutter, Architecture, Pergola
- 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.
