Norwegian vertical PV specialist about Easy is the development of various vertical PV projects on the roof in Spain. It said that one of the projects, a vertical of 2.4 kW, has an East-West orientation and is located in the Elche Business Park, near Alicante, in the southern part of the country.
Norway Based on Easy Solar, the launch of a vertically installed photovoltaic system in 2022 has announced.
“I have contacted easily after an article I have read PV -Magazine“Said Pablo Sánchez-Robes, founder of Albricias Energía.
There are currently two projects in Spain with the help of this solution, but Albricias Energía still has a few more in the pipeline.
“Architects love it because it offers complete integration with architectural lines because of the small size (28 cm height) and the preservation of the original design, and installers love it because of the simple installation,” he said.
A project of 2.4 kW in the Elche Business Park has an East-West orientation. The annual production is 2,932 kWh and the annual generation is 1,222 kWh/KWP, with an albedo of zero.
“With a gravel albedo of 0.3 it would rise to 1,400,” Sánchez-Robes claimed.
The Company Describes its prefabricated product as a “Vertical Photovoltaic (VPV) Unit. Each Unit Measures 1,600 mm x 1,510 mm x 350 mm and Weighs 24.5 kg (11 kg/m²). It has an IP6 PROTECTION PANLASS Rating and2 mmed. Heterojunction Solar Cells with 22% Efficiency, Bifaciality Up to 92%, and a temperature coefficient of -0.26 C.
A pallet with 33 units covers 80 m² and offers 6.6 kW. Their vertical design also makes the panels resistant to dirt, hail and wind, and prevents flame in the event of a fire.
Sánchez-Robles said that the generated electricity largely corresponds to domestic demand, increasing self-consumption and reducing the need for storage. “The orientation in Elche gives a peak around 10 am and a second peak around 8 pm, exactly the hours of the highest consumption in a house,” he added.
