Photovoltaic Systems

Photovoltaic solar panels convert daylight into electricity. This DC power can either be used directly – for a garden feature or greenhouse ventilation for example – or it can be stored in rechargeable solar batteries to be used for small voltage appliances. An inverter can convert the generated electricity into AC (230 Volt) power.
In remote areas or for low voltage requirements, PV is becoming more and more competitive with a long operating life and low maintenance – a highly reliable alternative to grid extension.
There are several programs in operation across Europe to encourage grid connected PV installations, both domestic and commercial. This has increased production and reduced costs.

Our partners have built the most modern PV production facility (capacity 5 MW/a) in Freiburg, Germany, where a combination of renewable energy systems supply all of the factories power demand. Being the only CO² neutral production facility in Europe guarantees that every PV panel contributes to a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions from the moment it starts generating electricity.

We offer a wide range of amorphous, polycrystalline and monocrystalline PV modules. Stand-alone systems, solar batteries, charge controllers, inverters, solar pumps, lights, radios, gadgets & gizmos – if it’s got to do with solar energy, we can deliver!

Solar street and park lights offer a great alternative where grid-connection is too expensive or mains power is far away

An excellent way to increase road safety is to install solar road studs (cat’s eyes) that charge up the integrated battery during daylight hours and give light all through the night.

The future has begun
