Kyocera solar modules are a reliable, virtually maintenance-free power supply designed to convert sunlight into electricity at the highest possible efficiency. Kyocera began researching photovoltaics in 1975 and has installed thousands of systems throughout the world since 1978. These systems are ideal for charging storage batteries to power remote homes, recreational vehicles, boats, telecommunications systems and other consumer and commercial applications.
Kyocera's advanced cell-processing technology and automated production facilities produce highly efficient multi-crystal photovoltaic modules. To protect the cells from the most severe environmental conditions, they are encapsulated between a tempered glass cover and an EVA pottant with a PVF back sheet. The entire laminate is installed in an anodized aluminum frame for structural strength and ease of installation.
d.Blue Module
Kyocera has perfected its new surface treatment technology and is using it on its entire line of modules named d.Blue, for its dark blue colour. The newly developed treatment method processes multi-crystalline silicon cells in order to produce a surface texture that minimizes surface reflectance and maximizes output. The result is a maximum conversion efficiency of 16 %, one of the highest conversion efficiencies in the polycrystalline module industry.
d.Blue is ideal for installation on all types of buildings, from residential to large scale commercial systems. The stylish dark blue cells, combined with black module frames, allow the modules to blend in with the buildings architecture while producing energy at exceptional efficiencies.
The d.Blue modules are available in 200, 175, and 130-watt panels. All feature Multi-Contact™ output cables, a heavy-duty box-style anodized aluminum frame; and an industry high 20-year power output warranty.
As an approximate guide, Kyocera Solar Photovoltaic panels would be around £6500 to £7000 per kilowatt installed depending on the type of installation and other hardware included in the installation, generally we use SMA inverters, Sunny boy series linked with SMA Sunny islands, and connected using only MC multiconnectors and Flexsol PV rated cables.
Solar PV Electric Array
Application:
The domestic photovoltaic Solar PV Electric Array generates electricity from daylight. This is commonly installed as a retrofit solution on top of existing tiles but can also be fitted to new buildings in place of conventional tiles. The range of PV panels available cater for all types of roofs and climatic conditions, transforming traditional buildings into miniature, clean power stations - in as little as one day.
Features:
- Very flexible, low cost design solution - using a range of panels the Sunstation can be adapted for almost any building and roof type
- Quick and easy installation - fixing solutions have been developed to aid rapid installation
- Requires no alterations to existing roof structure
- Uses high efficiency modules needing on average 6 square metres per kWp (kilowatt peak) most installations would average 1.5kw
- Simple electrical connection - the Sunstation requires a single connection from the solar inverter to the household wiring
- Easily monitored - the Sunstation is supplied with an intelligent energy meter to monitor system performance and encourage energy efficiency
- Power output from the modules is guaranteed for at least 20 years
We offer a wide range of Solar PV electric panels from the leading manufacturers to suit all your needs for Grid tie applications, for stand alone applications and for also hybrid applications working together with our Wind Generators
Technical specifications are available upon request.
We also offer in conjunction with our solar panels. 'BIOCLEAN self-cleaning' glass as an optional extra in order to optimise the performance of your investment because solar panels work at there most efficient when they are clean, small dirt or gime can significantly reduce the performance of all solar panels.
- Less frequent cleaning - Panels stay cleaner for longer
- Much easier cleaning - less dirt and grime adheres to the glass
- Save money - the cost of Panel cleaning is reduced
- Ideal for hard to reach areas - such as roofs
- The most neutral self-cleaning glass available
- No unsightly tint or reflective surface - looks just like normal glass
- Permanent coating - lasts the lifetime of the Panel
- Environmentally friendly - less frequent use of water and detergents
What is it?
SGG BIOCLEAN is a dual-action self-cleaning glass that stays cleaner for longer. A permanent, transparent coating on the outside surface of the glass harnesses the power of both sun and rain to efficiently breakdown and remove dirt and grime such as dried, dirty water marks, dust and insect residues.
Normal glass and SGG BIOCLEAN
Normal Glass : Accumulation of grime and dirty water marks.
SGG BIOCLEAN - Action 1 : photocatalysis
Exposure to the UV rays in daylight triggers the decomposition of organic dirt and causes the surface of the glass to turn hydrophilic.
SGG BIOCLEAN - Action 2 : hydrophilic action
Water (or rain) forms a sheet of water across the surface of the glass and rinses away broken-down organic dirt and mineral material.
