About Etile Fotonapetostna strešna kritina

Etile je fotonapetostna kovinska strešna kritina, zasnovana za uporabo na različnih vrstah stavb. Vsak modul temelji na tradicionalni pocinkani jekleni strešni kritini in nosi pet mikro fotonapetostnih panelov, ki proizvajajo električno energijo. Moduli merijo 1200 krat 360 krat 30 milimetrov in se med seboj spajajo kot običajne strešne kritine, pri čemer so kabelske povezave skrite pod strešno oblogo. Napajalni vod je priključen na električno omrežje stavbe. Jekleno ploščo je mogoče ob koncu življenjske dobe izdelka ločiti. Etile doda proizvodnjo energije brez spreminjanja strešne konstrukcije.

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.
