World's 1st Industrial Installment of Perovskite Solar Cells in Poland

• Poland-based Saule Technologies, a perovskite solar tech business, has released its and the globe's first setup of solar blinds-- sun breakers with perovskite solar cells.

The business discusses that the blinds not only secure the structure from overheating or cooling down, considerably decreasing the price of cooling and heating.

Poland-based Saule Technologies, a perovskite solar tech company, has launched its initial installment of photovoltaic or pv blinds-- sun breakers with perovskite solar cells. This globe's initial industrial application of perovskite solar cell technology was a partnership with Aliplast, claimed the business.

Saule's brand-new product was first provided in October 2020. The profiles with solar modules, which are positioned on the light weight aluminum structure provided by Aliplast, are outfitted with an automated adjustment of position with the sun's motion, established by Somfy.

The company describes that the blinds not just protect the structure from overheating or cooling off, substantially lowering the cost of a/c as well as heating. At the same time, they generate tidy energy from solar lighting.

Thanks to the Animeo automation system from Somfy, the profiles with perovskite modules cooperate with the weather station mounted on the roofing systems. Utilizing real-time weather condition information and also sun-tracking, they instantly alter their positioning with the movement of the sun. This solution makes sure the facility's energy efficiency and also assurances thermal convenience and defense against also severe light for the building individuals, regardless of the period, claims Saule.

"The execution of the system is feasible in any type of structure kind. For that reason, I think that this is the beginning of a revolution on the planet of photovoltaics," said Jan Kidaj, President of the Management and also Board Member of Aliplast.

Sun breakers become part of Building Applied Photovoltaics (BAPV) systems, i.e., photovoltaic or pv installments mounted on office buildings, shopping centers, warehouses, and manufacturing facilities. Saule Technologies perovskite sun blinds can be customized to client choices, ranging from the material used, such as aluminum, wood, glass, or plastics, through shape and also width, to color.

In photovoltaics, solar sun blinds open up a brand-new market opportunity with massive development possibility: building facades, where traditional silicon cells, hefty as well as ineffective in suboptimal illumination, do not complete, added Poland-headquartered Saule.

Unlike traditional silicon cells, perovskite cells are flexible, light-weight, ultra-thin and transparent. Their manufacturing does not need heats, which translates right into significantly lower power consumption, lower manufacturing expenses, as well as the opportunity of using substrates of different surface areas, even foil or textiles.

Perovskite cells can create power from artificial light, and also unlike silicon panels, they are efficient also then when the sun's rays fall at an angle aside from 90 levels. Thanks to these benefits and their reduced weight, they can be installed also on vertical façade components as well as in colors matching the frontage of the buildings.
