The science is clear: to avoid the worst impacts of climate change, emissions need to be reduced by almost half by 2030 and reach net-zero by 2050.
We need to end our reliance on fossil fuels and invest in alternative sources of energy that are clean, accessible, affordable, sustainable and reliable
- United Nations
Renewable energy is energy derived from natural sources that are replenished at a higher rate than they are consumed. Sunlight and wind, for example, are such sources that are constantly being replenished. Renewable energy sources are plentiful and all around us.
Solar energy is the most abundant of all energy resources and can even be harnessed in cloudy weather. The rate at which solar energy is intercepted by the Earth is about 10,000 times greater than the rate at which humankind consumes energy.
The cost of manufacturing solar panels has plummeted dramatically in the last decade, making them not only affordable but often the cheapest form of electricity. Solar panels have a lifespan of roughly 30 years, and come in variety of shades depending on the type of material used in manufacturing.
Conventional PV modules that are retrofitted onto existing building surfaces, commonly on the roof top. The PV modules are installed onto a separate structure, such as a frame or rack, which is then attached to the building. BAPV is often used in large-scale solar projects, as it is cost-effective and can be installed quickly. Additionally, BAPV is flexible as it can be moved or adjusted to capture more sunlight.
BIPV modules –replacing conventional building elements with structural materials incorporating PV modules such as tiles, skylight and façade. It serves dual purpose of generating energy while forming overall aesthetic of the building.
An illustration of a building with PIBV. It functions similarly to a conventional PV panels but is specially designed to be integrated into the building structure. It does not require additional support structure or adding extra space, having various sizes, shapes and colors to fit the building design and aesthetic.
ESS(Energy Storage System) products
Renewable energy is inherently unstable and intermittent. We can incorporate supply of energy storage system based on requirements and suitability, to store energy generated for reliability and later use when needed.
