The most Innovative Product in the Solar Industry: SOLAR TILE
Acquiring energy from the sun and effectively exploring solar energy may be the best routine for the sustainable development of the human race. For the PV industry, the biggest and most cost -‐effective position for use of solar energy is not places such as desert, island and mountains that are far way from living areas. Instead all kinds of roofs in the densely populated areas of a city where people live, is the place where energy is consumed. The roof and façade of a building are the best positions for power generation through solar energy. Effectively using the roof to generate power is the most feasible way for the PV industry to move forward. Traditionally, this was only possible through Roof Top Solar Power Plants. But now ADS Solar Solutions introduces the Indian Solar Industry to a new product, which is one of the most innovative applications of Solar Power that can be used in the Infrastructure and Real Estate Sector of India -‐ Solar Tiles. Solar Tiles have all the features of traditional tiles that can prevent wind and rain from seeping inside, and an additional feature of generating electricity through Solar Power.
The key product features –
• Material used has High Strength and Low penetrating rate • Grooved Platform • Rain Proofing Design • Heat Cooling Design • Life Cycle of more than 50 years
The various advantages of Solar PV Tiles are as following – A) Better heat-‐isolating effects: PV tiles are well compacted and have good heat-‐isolating effects. PV tile roofs transform about 20% solar energy into power and reduce heat gathering on the roof. Also because of the big cooling space on the back and good ventilation, the temperature of PV tiles does not rise quickly. B) Better waterproof function : Because PV tiles are well compacted, its water penetrating rate is only 0.5%, less than one-‐tenth of that of normal tiles. So rain does not penetrate into the tile and inside the roof. C) Power generation function: Using high efficiency solar cell, the power generated by PV tile is about 70-‐100W/m2 (depending on the type of the tiles.) D) Higher strength and longer life cycle: PV Tiles have upto 5000N anti-‐inflection strength, much stronger than 1200N of normal tiles. Plus because of their extremely low water penetration rate, these tiles remain unaffected by such bad weather conditions as rain, ice, fog and snow – thus making its life cycle longer by almost up to 50 years. Compared with normal firing tile, the maintenance costs of these tiles are a big advantage. For users, higher strength gives them an advantage in terms of decreasing transportation costs and savings on breakage costs. E) Saving installation costs: 1) Because of up to 50 years of life cycle, substituting costs are 3 times that of normal tiles costs. 2) Compared with normal tile to construct solar roof, PV tile roof save steel base costs, water proofing costs and heat-‐isolating costs
F) Keeping architecture ‘s style: Using PV tiles to construct solar roofs maintains the color consistency of the whole roof, therefore retaining its original architecture style and beauty. Based on its no color difference
appearance, and smooth and consistent material quality, PV tiles help your roof keep its traditional style and at the same time look more beautiful. G) Easy to install: For new buildings, PV tiles can be installed as normal tiles, and only need a simple link of circuit cables. These are easy to install and save construction time.
To conclude –
• PV tiles are especially suitable for the roof construction of low-‐density civil buildings, and can replace traditional tiles and realize power generation.
• Compared with solar module, they can save installation costs, water-‐proofing treatment costs and heat-‐isolating costs.
• As tiles, they have better strength, are light weight and have a longer life cycle. • For BIPV, it maintains the original architectural style and looks more beautiful.
