Essential appearance, elegant design and resistance to fire and weather: few but precise features for the solar roofs of the future. Or the present? The Estonian company Roofit.Solar already has solutions of this type, "fight and parade", strength and beauty. And they are just some of the many in a rapidly growing economy.
The charging of solar roofs
Rising energy costs have spurred a growing need for independent and sustainable solutions. Solar roofs can produce green energy while maintaining the aesthetic harmony of the building. This makes them ideal for both new builds and renovations, giving an accessible and long-lasting solution.
The feature of Roofit.Solar's solar roofs is the use of mono-PERC cells integrated into a Swedish steel frame which gives the solar cells an almost invisible appearance from a distance and a robust structure. How sturdy?
Benefits and resistance
Roofit.Solar's solar roofs boast exceptional resistance to extreme weather conditions, such as snow, ice, hail and wind. They have passed snow load resistance tests: they maintain high performance. Furthermore, the class A fire resistance rating and protection against corrosion and premature aging ensure additional safety.
The “made in Estonia” solar roofs are certified according to international standards and are offered with a 10-year guarantee. The lifespan of the frame varies from 50 to 100 years, thus guaranteeing a long-term investment and savings even when replacing them. Their two-in-one design also saves on material and labor costs.
Solar roofs: what do we do with the energy?
Roofit.Solar's solar roofs use solar panels with Mono PERC photovoltaic cells, available in three different sizes and powers. The energy produced can be used directly or stored in batteries, with the possibility of selling excess energy to public energy producers. This flexibility makes Roofit.Solar solar roofs suitable for a wide range of architectural needs and configurations.
What are mono PERC cells?
Mono PERC (Passivated Emitter and Rear Cell) photovoltaic cells they are an advanced technology in the field of photovoltaic solar panels. In summary, they are an improved variant of traditional monocrystalline solar cells. And they have several strengths:
- Structure and materials: Mono PERC cells are made of monocrystalline silicon, which ensures high efficiency in converting sunlight into electricity. The peculiarity is in their improved structure, which includes a passivating layer on the back.
- Improved efficiency: The passivating layer on the back of the cell reduces photon loss, allowing for greater light absorption and increased energy efficiency. This improves the performance of solar roofs, especially in low light conditions.
- Less wear, longer life: Mono PERC cells tend to degrade less quickly than traditional solar cells, which means they maintain high efficiency for a longer period.
- Applications: They are particularly useful in limited spaces, where it is necessary to maximize energy production per unit area.
- Cost-efficiency: Despite their slightly higher cost than standard solar cells, mono PERC cells offer a better long-term return on investment due to their higher efficiency and durability.
In summary, mono PERC cells are a significant evolution in the solar panel industry: superior performance, greater efficiency and long-term reliability.
Everyone on the roofs
The "charge" (in every sense) of these innovative systems will improve the energy efficiency of buildings with a more harmonious design integrated with the environment.
Apparently, the road to a more sustainable future is starting from Estonia and also passes through solar roofs.
